This tune is a cover of the Foundation trio who are best known in this video : www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGqB-wX253c

In the picture, Foundation members from left to right :
- Everton "Ipal" Thomas
- Emilio "Pupa" Smiley (or also called Emilius "Fatha" Smiley")
- Errol "Keith" Douglas

As a reminder, in this video the guys went to Jack Ruby who is overwhelmed : he has just finished Burning Spear albums which have been hits. Ruby invites them to go see another producer.
Finally the first album will be released 15 years later, at ... Jack Ruby's.
Obviously it was too late, as the sound of 88 was not so dread.

I always wondered what it would be like to see what would have been mixed at the time, if it had been recorded in the right timing. And so did I this cover !
I actually composed the riddim in 2018 and thought this text matched well with it.
But the idea of releasing a cover for my first official release really bothered me.
This is the reason why this track will never be pressed on vinyl.
