Please Help ! Unknown song, artist

Post by Rzouga »

I 've received from a freind of mine an audio tape with some reggae stuff including Prince Far I , Bim Sherman...
The tape have no cover neither any inscription on.
The unknown song there is a song by a lady. lyrics goes almost like this :" I and I go a africa (x2) because the war is over (x2) no more killing and shooting, africa is a land of love, we nuh need no any boxing loves (x2) I and I go a africa.
The track is about 11mn55 and the rythm about 63 bpm. the taste is almost roots with some toast :" open the gate and let we repatriate, one step forward...." ( the dj toaster is also unknown for me :)
The record is made ( I think) between 1977 and 1980.

Thank for your precious help. I am in love with this song

Most probably the Wentworth Vernal track.
Done by the Roots Radics as well, on their "Freelance" album, though I prefer the Studio One track.
