I-Roy / The Crystalites
Tougher Than Tough / Tougher Than Tough Version
Single JM 1973 on Crystal Records label
Reggae and R&B/Soul (Dub, Roots Reggae)
While the A-side presents I-Roy's toast over The Chosen Few's "Do Your Thing" (Do Your Thing) the B-side offers a heavy instrumental bongo & melodica-cut on the same riddim. Augustus Pablo & Bongo Herman remain uncredited. The B-side generally wears a different label from Derrick Harriott's: It's a green/white "Move & Groove"-label with black print which says "Version" - "Crystalites". The "Version" appears on collections sometimes as "Tough Version".
