Liner notes

Published by [MMI Publishing](http://www.discogs.com/label/371830-MMI-Music)/[[label:West Kenya Music]]. 2nd Commercial Press (featuring McSHAN). This version can be distinguished from the [other 1985 pressing](http://www.discogs.com/Marley-Marl-Featuring-DJ-Shan-Marley-Marl-Scratch/release/4427586) by [[artist:MC Shan]]'s credit, which appears on the other version as "featuring DJ Shan". The definitive way to tell the difference between an original pressing and an [unofficial reissued version](http://www.discogs.com/Marley-Marl-Featuring-DJ-Shan-Marley-Marl-Scratch/release/1077568) is to look at the runout groove — only the original release has both the [[label:Sound Makers]] stamp on both sides and the "AMP" with a five-pointed star etching on side A.
