Few years back I came across an alternative version to B.Melody's "Come Home" recording off the "Rock It Already" album. The version I'm referring had a higher pitched lead-vocalist than B.Melody's.
Anybody know of alternative versions new or old to this recording?

the original is a rock steady chune:
Conquerors - Wont you come home (Sonia Pottinger)
Delroy Wilson covered it immidiately for Studio One, and thanks to Coxsones distribution network had the bigger hit, therefor the song is often beleived to be a Delroy Wilson Song.
Horace Andy, Frankie Paul , Josey Wales all used the lyrice
and in the early 90s Bobby Digital recut the riddim, featuring Delroy Wilson again (he must have cut it 5 times or so), but the most played cut of that riddim was Garnet Silk's immortal 'Place In Your Heart'
