Dutchy is not the only Dutchie to say it Bernie... Say UB40 to a non loonie and the first songs they mention are KT and RRW ... they get the most reaction from the general public at gigs. We know their own catalogue is much much more than a few covers, but it's not always easy to get that point across outside of this UB haven.

to a little extent i agree
BUT
and it it is a BIG BUT

dont you think, that for a band that has always tried to promote Reggae regardless of whether original or thier interpritation of music THEY LOVE..they are effing good
i had never heard any version of this song before, so i cant compare..although i will look it up

Dutchy
i dont listen to a wide range of music and i am hearing new stuff (to me) on here on a regular basis - oLdbOi, Jimmy Jimmy & T75 being a few of the most frequent people posting tracks
judging on previous posts and what music you have posted, you and others have a far broader knowledge of music and enjoy a wider range of music than me, however although i respect your comments..i can only comment on what i enjoy

Nice to hear from you Father, hope all's well with you. As for the sleeve notes, well, I hope to have the chance to write them again one day.
Peace,
