A lovely roots song from the velvet tones of Freddie McGregor. Written and produced by Freddie and released on his own Big Ship label. The catalogue number from the label is BS-7002........The matrix numbers in the dead wax are...DSR 3118 A/3119 B. The vinyl is visually graded as very good with some pressing water marks showing, there is also a piece of label paper pressed into the vinyl on the B side. This copy has the same label on both sides...which is the Side One label although the pressing has both sides......one label is a bit blurry and rubbed the other is much clearer.......see pictures. The paper in the wax causes an audible click for the last ten (10) revolutions of the B side ( dub side) the record plays as you would expect any Jamaican single to...with a few crackles and a little, but not bad, surface noise.
