Sugar Minott sings, Sly and Robbie play hard on the drum and bass, but Dillinger appears on the label and production credits only - no talkover! Great record though, one of my favourite Sugar Minott 12 inch 45s. #Reggae #Music #Reggaesky #Dub #Vinyl #Dancehall #Jamaica #weekendsingles #musicsky

Roseybell by Sugar Minott and Sly and Robbie on the Gorgon label.
