OK, I know this is on a Mikey Dread/Rod Taylor 12" but I swear it was from somewhere else, too:
"Dash You Well Out Dread, Dash You Well Out! Nasty It Up!"
"(please sir, would you mind saying that again?)"
[and it repeats].

I know I had it in my collection (which is long gone and now trying to be replaced digitally) 30-odd years ago and I'm trying to nail it down. Plus if anybody knows who's yelling (Prince Far I?). Thanks.

its a DATC jingle, used many times by mikey dread in his radioshow and used on HIM by rod taylor. i dont know by heart, but it could well be on the African Anthem, because that album features most of his radio jingles.

btw it goes: Dash yu weh now Dread.

that means: get out now!
(Throw yourself out now, dread)

No idea, but most of the jingles isn't done by Mikey Dread. Mikey Dread also took some jingles from movies. He had some jingles from Lee Perry.

"Dash Yu Weh Now Dread, Dash Yu Weh Now! Nasty It Up!"
Joseph Cotton (Jah Walton) indeed.
