Can anyone confirm who is the Dee Jay and the label this was released on? I thought it was Prince Glenn and Dillinger?

Thanks for the info...my blank label copy has the matrix WE 76861(presumably WE is Wnston Edwards). Surprised it is as late as 1975.

Well Steve after possessing a few Crutchesaka Delroy jones tunes, I'm convinced it is him. and I'm well aware of the randys Java,java,java,java, reissue with that track credited to crutches [jah stitch] but if you have the other 45 by little youth Zion Train on the [Stop Point] Label you'll hear the similarites in voal content.

Ok Dudley I'm gonna do some research into that ,I have quite a few tunes by Delroy & never really questioned the credits on Fort Augustus Rock but I'll try to compare the sounds Cheers for the insight!

... i believe Zion Train is by Little 'Big' Joe, Dud, so the Little Youth credit on Stop Point isnt 'acurate' ... will you believe Big 'Little' Joe's Selassie Skank on some issues is credited to Big Youth ! ... what now allegory LOL
Edwards issued Crutches indeed, but that was for Forgie on Ringo Don't Take ...
WE 7686-1 is Mop Head Screw Face by djduo Prince Glen Trinity & Dillinger
btw these UK issues on Fay are postdate by some two years (my Zion Train copy is handated March '73 forinstance)

OK..so the blank copy I have with Matrix WE 7686-1starts with the following into "Now featuring the man called Augustus Pablo doing the Fort Augustus Rock" The paper sleeve has hand written "Fort Augustus Rock-Dillinger & Prince Glen" It ain't Mop Head Screw Face...

Well Chungdejah I'll have to disagree with you on your selection of DJ, to me I have to stick with my Original entry. I have a few early Big Joe tunesand to me the vocal refrain of this DJ styles himself after Big Joe, Listen to Selassie Skank & this tune and you'll hear the difference in voices. I also have that Mophead Screwface tune too. But that's interesting to know about the Selassie skank as wrongly credited to Big Youth, no way that's him almost anyone can tell the difference.So that's my $ 2 worth
