The sign is also found on church windows in ethiopia and that was long before it was hijacked by adolf hitler

[sweeetly]

@InIseen Original meaning of this sign is positive.

3rd Riek contamintaed it.

Looks like the creator of this label had the true headsup :)

[sweeetly]

@InIseen Left turning swaztica is sign of peace. Can be seen in Hindi paintings.

Everything is one coin with 2 sides. Peace in the Irea'

@InIseen svastika is only used by hitler and nazist, but not means racism or nazism... svastika is sanskrit word can means various thing like: a bard who welcomes, an intersection of four roads, the hands or arms crossed on his chest, a cross-shaped bandage, the rooster, a precious crown-shaped triangular...

In oriental thing represents Solar Disc...

Big big tune brotha, thank you for this fantastic track, when i just read 12 inch, something hits me within. This is bloody good :)

hey pablowkingstoned, you wouldnt happen to have rootsman reggae by zap pow would you? if you did and could post it you would be doin me such a huge favor. i love that song but i cant find it anywhere

@InIseen swastika is a symbol used for thousands of years by cultures all over the world. hitler adopted them for the nazi party long after.. probably related to something completely different in this case...

[pablowkingstoned]

@pablowkingstoned They used to be the Jewish symbol of peace, just Perry being naughty me thinks!

[bwoyrough]

is the B.Hammond on the Label Beres Hammond? sounds like him but didn't know he was in Zap Pow...

[pablowkingstoned]

yes he was "Zap Pow grew until we were the highest-paid band in the land," Pinkney said. As such, they had their choice of vocalists and "we went through quite a few". Among them were Bunny Rugs, now lead singer for Third World, and the deceased Jacob Miller, former lead singer for Inner Circle. The one who stayed the longest was Beres Hammond, whom Pinkney credits with being "our best vocalist, too".,,

[bwoyrough]

interesting..had no idea jacob miller or bunny rugs sang with them, one of my fav tune by them is River (black ark), thnx 4 the info

[TerrierBram]

When I heard this, I though immediately ... huh, LSP?

Producer : Dwight Pinkney & Glen Da Costa & David Madden

[pablowkingstoned]
