Sending that out to my man G Boss and his queen C Boss over there in Haddon Heights.

Before that, it was a, an obscure artist, goes by the name of Derwin Byfield, gave you "Jah My Light," my light version.

That's from the LP entitled Rough Change.

Before that, we had the Mighty Diamonds with Long Time.

We had Neville Brown in the mix with a track called A Friend Indeed.

and some Wailing Souls with How Can You Feel Better, a really great different version of the track released on their LP, which I'm much more familiar with.

Yeah, the Mighty Diamonds working it out with the Revolutionaries, what a classic, Have Mercy, pulling it from the Virgin Front Line Presents Reggae Disco Mixes: 24 Killer Extended Mixes, obviously on the Virgin record label.

Before that was some deeper tracks, Ricky Grant with I Chose Far I from his album Poverty People on the Island In the Sun record label.

Bunny Wailer with Rastaman, taken from his just legendary album Blackheart Man on the Island label.
