I was just a little boy in Jones town when I first fell in love with this song. I knew nothing about music then but my young ears heard it and my young spirit was lifted and carried away by it. Fifty years later and I still love this song, it takes me back home.

Excellent,harmonizing and lovely vocal by Mr Roy Cousins.🔥🔥🔥🔥

An ice cold beer and this bangin chune is pretty much everything I need for my friday. Quarentine is not bad as it seems. Enjoy life.

This bassline is just the most simple and amazing bassline ever! So short but never getting boring! Love it

I see where the bass line from Dennis Brown's "Whip dem Jah" come from

I smoked some expensive platinum kush and Girl Scout cookies strain of weed and I am listening to this now and I surely believe that I am floating somewhere in a music-sphere of absolute...total...melodious...and mystic bliss!!!

Studio 1 is the best

this tune is beyond reggae..This tune created its own music gender. Blew me away. That voice, the chorus and the beat perfectly blend

I have been searching for this song and this version for a long time the song and harmonizing are 🔥

still cant decde which cut of this tune i like the mostess!!! both are incredibly sweet...but the coxsone sound is simplicity and beauty combined! brap!

picking up the pieces!!!!!!!!!!! Mr Coxsone rules

What a melody 😊❤

When Tubbys play this, and you stand in front of the double 18 is like like like like - bwoy mi cant explain.

When a song has good melody (like this one), Great Harmony (like this one), Words of Wisdom (like this one), you can listen to it all day long. No matter how many Studio One Version they make of this song, it stays with you...I really like how they overdub the new versions with Buju Banton. see good looking gal by Buju..

YES! I'm so happy! I forgot the title and name of this group and I love this song so much! I've been looking for it for maybe at least 5 years! It's such a healing song!

A really Beautiful Song. Vocalising and Bass Playing Excellent. Big Tune.

Whip them Jah Jah, whip them Lord

Boy these tunes na die

Well .. if when I found the right man to dance with back in the days , I could rock with just the bass guitar helping me rock 😉😉🤩😎🎤🙏🏾🌹👍🏾🎉

I think this version originally came out 1971 - 72 but was rereleased in 1976 and that's when it became HUGE. Version upon version start pouring out, and is now considered one of the great Studio One riddims.

Top Ranking !!! Wicked Version, Singers use to wail in dem times Harmonizing like birds But the words and storyline dread. Remember when we had a box of 45 cleaning the disc with cleaner A spliff and Good vibes Go deh Rid dim roll

Roy Cousins vocal

brilliant tune so many versions of this riddim nearly all outstanding

Leroy Sibbles bass player

all time favorite, so sweet!

some ting like dis... timeless... words can't describe. HUGE!

Wicked tune big up the royals

lets put them together!!! Beautiful. Thanks~!

this was a time when very different voices were played unlike late ninties onwards most singers sound to much alike and boredown the music now they have 100 singers on one track and only 2 or 3 fit the tune come on reggae stations get your selections together many youths are to be heard as themselves .more love

IMMORTAL HARMONIES! Sing out mi idrens.

stunning tune roy cousins

Reggae is altogether beautiful but certain people and bands have distinct place of there own. When it comes to bass and bassline, no production company play heavy like StudioOne.

Top version of this song

@leswoodies2 nice song and nice to see a familiar name enjoying it the same

This is honestly my favorite song ever. I could listen to it on repeat for hours. I'm glad I finally know the complete name of the record. Are these versions abridged, or did you rip and post them as they are on the record? I only have one dub version similar to the first one here, and it's 6:22 long (it was on a CDR someone made for me, I don't have the original vinyl). I wonder how much the actual record goes for...

Did S1 ever properly release this before Roy Cousins paid to press & put his own version out - & setting him as a popular (but still lesser known) Singer/Arranger/producer ?
