    Good UK Press of this Classic Roots Reggae inna Discomix Style...
    Money In My Pocket, released in its first version in 1972 (Money In My Pocket), was a good local success, as was the DJ version of Big Youth (A-So We Stay (Money In Hand) / Scar Face).
    But success was in 1978 on a more spicy instrumental that will have a real international impact. Indeed it reached the 12th place of the British charts and established Dennis Brown as a singer with universal appeal.

      I have a copy with an orange/red label with the Warner Bros Recs logo at the top. Associated with West Indies Recs Ltd, Barbados - anybody know much about these?
