Day 364 of 365 Day Jamaican Music Challenge - Lloyd & Devon - Wolf Out Deh

Lloyd & Devon, Lloyd Robinson & Devon Russell, who had previously recorded as part of the vocal group The Tartans in the late 60's, had a couple hit songs in the early reggae era before going on to record and release "Wolf Out Deh" for Lee "Scratch" Perry in 1977.  It was originally released as a 7" on the Black Art label.  While the Wolf in the track is more of a metaphor for those who are looking to do harm to the innocent, but with only two days to go until Halloween, it's easy to imagine the werewolf variety instead.  "Wolf Out Deh" was originally featured here in the 2013 Spooktacular.
