1973

APE MAN * AUGUSTUS PABLO * AH WEE * JA

One day checking these obscure blanks will be easier than using a telephone book, as there could well be a web site with all the master numbers of all records of Jamaican origin from the late fifties . . . but until then I just have to enjoy this cut, and others like it, in blissful ignorance.

I wrote the above in 2003, seems like a mere seven years later those days are almost on us, as now I have found out the info in this cut. It is a cut on the Look Before You Leap rhythm and was produced by D Smith and released on the Ah Wee label in 1973.
