1970

Sugar Sugar

Written by Andy Kim and Jeff Barry, famous by a recording by the pop-group „The Archies“. Lead vocals by Bob Marley.
Harmonies by Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Rita Marley.
Probably bass by Jackie Jackson, drums by Hugh Malcolm, guitars by Lynn Taitt and Ranford Williams.
Recorded at Randy´s.
At the French Complete Wailers vinyl issue it is said, the track would be a Leslie Kong production. But that seems wrong and the track in fact is a Randy´s production.
