The spotify link takes you to a early jamaican dub compilation - which one was it - presume its the Danny J Special Dub as that's the one by "out of one man come many? If it is it does seem to be the same as this ... by the ethnic fight band. Great name for a band but little on the internet about them> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXcnr5rUYz4 Seems to have been a house band created by a UK producer http://www.roots-archives.com/forum/read.php?2,65478 Larry Lawrence who seemed to be instrumental in bringing reggae and dub to the UK. And here is more detail of album with http://www.roots-archives.com/release/2991

At least your search took you to a pleasant ending. Mine for "The Times are a Changing" cover by Babies on Razorblades took me to a punk spoof by Jonathan King and I felt dirty!

That's the one! I clearly remember the single 
loudspeaker I bought for £10 from an ancient department store attached to my old 
SW radio filling my student room (a box not much bigger than the speaker) with 
deep wondrous bass - I probably thought that JP was describing himself when he 
stated the band name and hence failed to note it down at the time!
 
Come On Yvonne is the most important unidentified 
remaining.......

A few of you might remember me uploading an unknown dub track into the 
Files section, labelled by me as Sleeping Dogs, and also available on Peel Early Nov 1983 . Well, after hearing  from 
JohnPeel3904 about how good Shazam is now, I fired it up and the track was 
quickly identified as 
Out Of One Man Comes Many by Out Of One Man Comes Many Dubs. 
(Spotify link).
Strange band and track title, it has to be said, and it's 
unclear what if any link there is to the track Out Of One Man Comes Many Dubs by the Ethnic 
Fight Band, which doesn't sound anything like it. 
Looks like Shazam has been 
trained up on anything that's available on Spotify, or p erhaps directly through 
record companies.

Just a few early unidentifieds to go then I'll die 
happy

Stuart
