Mighty Abajians - Don't Change The System
Swing Bird / / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1980
N/A
Second cut on the rhythm first used for "Untamed", much much of a straight mix employed here, with a pure drum & bass dub version.
Swing Bird / / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1977

Awesome heavy roots harmony from ~1975, recorded and mixed at Channel 1.

Sir Harry - Power House / Version
Sir Collins / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 197-
N/A
"Power House" by Sir Harry, another rare beast from the vaults. This track is alternately know by several names, usually based on the cryptic words spoken by Sir Harry in the intro, and bears no real official title, the original release being only on a blank label. The title "Power House" comes from Charlie Morgan's excellent Studio 1 discography, and we've used it here as a nod to his invaluable work. But on to the music, Sir Harry's tune is not so much his own, as the old time chatter only interjects a few odd phrases here and there. Really the tune is a phenomenal instrumental workout on the same rhythm as "You Touch My Soul", with organ and bongo drum overdubs propelling the awesome rhythm forward, while the Invaders' vocals are heard ever so faintly in the background, bleeding thru from the other track on the 2-track master.

Pressure Sounds UK 1973

Junior Murvin - Rescue Jah Children / Instrumental Dub Version
Wild Flower / Dub Store Records JPN 1976
N/A
This tune was the second Roots tune recorded by Junior Murvin after his first 1974 masterpiece. With different dynamics, this great track was also highly sought after, and considering this tune as one of his few recordings during the period, it should be recognized as an important record and a true masterpiece.
Clive Matthews - Am Going Home / Hop Ki Do Skank Version
Fox Fire / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1978
N/A
'Am Going Home', is the third and final cut on the legendary rhythm also employed for Clive's 'Apology' and Trevor's 'Tell Me That You Love Me', both of which were released (and still available!) in our first and previous set of FOX FIRE tunes. 'Am Going Home' is just as killer as those two, and has its own unique dub side, different to either of the others, called 'Hop Ki Do Skank'!
