I've only ever known the Carl Craig edit of this track that came out on London's Honest Jon's but a few weeks ago having a shuffle through a few record bins I came across The Congos' album, from where this cut is culled, Heart of The Congos and took a punt on it and what a record it is! Filled to the brim with great Lee Perry produced reggae conscious vibes that are all ripe for early doors/early morning sessions, this is one of those albums that will get serious needle time in mi casa and dare say it, the original version of this cut is better than the Carl Craig edit. Still that's not to say that the Carl Craig edit is bad by any stretch.
