I love when I find something that I forgot that I was looking for…
I used to search for this song at every record store I visited from around 1996–2000. It was not a new song at the time, but I really wanted it on 7-inch. Amoeba Records in San Francisco had a corner filled with shelves which were filled with long boxes of Jamaican singles and I would flip blindly through those records, not really knowing much about most of them.
I never found the record.
But today I stumbled on the song again in mp3 form! An old old itch has finally been scratched.
