This week, Saturday Scratch finds Lee Perry back behind the desk at the Black Ark for this 1977 single by Ronnie Davis.
For over 40 years Davis has worked as part of The Itals and The Tennors vocal groups and he's also been produced as a solo artist by legendary figures such as Bunny Lee and Phil Pratt. Now in his early 60s, he continues to tour and record.
An enterprising soul put the two sides of this 7" together to form a custom made extended edit, although I own a 12" version which has a subtly different mix. This works fine for me though. Feel free to join in with the backing vox.
Have a good weekend.

Thanks for the encouragement OPC, I'll do my best! I'm glad you're enjoying it.
Apologies for being slow getting to this, sir. Another fine slice of Scratch form a time when he was untouchable, methinks. Keep up the fine work.
