    Hi Frankie - glad you like this. This label was a side project of I & I Sound record label out of Los Angeles in the 80s.

    Here is another 12 inch from Orvil 'fatal' black on the same label, that I recently found:

    The B side is one of the most bizarre reggae tunes I have ever heard (credited to Papa Cornell) Dj chanting over a very happy flute riddim. I can also hear bird, frog (?) sounds, and what appears to be a kazoo.

    There is so much echo and sounds and things going on in the background that it's hard to follow the dj..

    i know this song! now i can't remember if it was this version or another. not just the rhythm. the lyrics are very familiar.
