Just heard a killer version of Live and Let Die on VibesFM - supposedly came out in 72 and never had a proper release in the UK - well, thats what the dj said.

Alitlle look around it and I think its Byron Lee, and can be found on the Trojan Beatles Tribute Box Set.

My fella used to have a reggae version of the corrie theme tune by The I-Royals

Noah House Of Dread?
