Reggae version of Keith Washington's Kissing You

[horseguards]

I have a Reggae version of Keith Washington's Kissing You.

I recorded this on a cassette from a radio show in the early to mid 1980's but don't know the artist.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Dean Frasier? He did a lot of these cheesy soul covers..

Skylarker,

Thanks for the info.

That is cheesy and it isn't the one. I suppose my version is more "Lover's Rock."

When I find a way to transfer cassete to my computer I could post it. Until then...

In the first part of the 80's Keith Washington's tune wasn't recorded yet

Barry Boom did the reggae make over somewhere early 90's.
The tune appeared as a solo track and a duo track with Cutty Ranks (think it's Nardo Ranks

Dean Fraser's tune isn't a cover of KW tune.


Edit: the Barry Boom tracks both are released on Tun It Over 2 (Bogle Meets Armstrong) in 1992 on Mango.

Hans,

Barry Boom - that's it. Brilliant. I owe you a beer, Sir.
I've been looking for years.

I suspect the actual track will be on Tun It Over; that one with Cutty Ranks is pretty awful - murders the song.

Thank you, mate.

Grant.
