very true, i reckon - I reckon the biggest reggae track in the chart 
ever (correct me if I'm wrong) would have been the Natural Ites 
'Picture on My Wall' which was a single and maybe the only track the 
band ever got played on radio more than once (unlike the various 
Misty ones etc and thus got focused on greatly - it was a massive 
favourite of JP too.

Still not convinced that it wasn't a case of mistaken identity! 
(remember D.O.S.E from a past year)
Is Marc Smith the Scottish Marc Smith? (as opposed to a Southern one, perhaps?)
