Greetings,

Somebody asked me recently just how many actual songs do you have devoted to the Seven Leaf?

I am running two accounts of iTunes at the moment and just haven’t collapsed all 50,000 songs I have “harvested”  to iTunes into one spot. on my Go Flex External Hard Drive

Best guestimation of Smile Jamaica’s herb tunes: Reggae, Dub, Rock, Soul, Blues,Gospel (ha ha)  etc. It is at least 800.

And that doesn’t include probably another 150 on vinyl LP/12″. And probably 300 or so 45’s: classic Reggae as well as Ragga.

There is a whole sub genre just in the Mutant Dub world on 10″ and 12″. I probably have 30-40 of those extended mix dub workouts too.

So here is a little sampling of some of my Ark-Ives A-Z

bless, robt
