(1) The hard-roots reggae vocal group Knowledge, recorded the 'Hail Dread' album for Tappa Zukie in 1978. It was released by A&M UK, but inappropriately marketed. The album consequently failed to attract the attention of reggae collectors and is, today, a largely unrecognised classic of the genre.
The original line-up consisted of singer/songwriter Anthony Doyley and Michael Smith on guitar with Earl McFarlane, Michael Samuels and Delroy Fawlin on vocals.
‘Hail Dread’ was followed by ‘Judgement’. Selected tracks from both albums are available on ‘Straight Outta Trenchtown: 1975-1980’
The next decade saw the release of further recordings, although by this time several of the group had met violent ends.
(2) Knowledge were formed by Link 80 lead singer Nick Traina (The Son of Daneile Steel, who wrote a Biography about him called "His Bright light"). Before the death of Nick Traina in 1997, they recorded one demo album called 'Gift Before I Go', which was released on Asian Man Records.
(3) A Hip-Hop artist from Skelmersdale, UK, part of the Hip-Hop group Skem Poet Society
(4) An up-and-coming UK Hip-Hop artist signed to the independant label, RawTalk Recordings

Knowledge Lyrics
Better Things Just because I'm not too old, It doesn't make me dumb Cause…
Brotherhood We were 18 and we were on the streets Never had…
Clinton Youth I look at how you live and I see how…
Cynic Throw me back in tears that you have only shared I…
Don't Give Up Just when I don't think I can take no more Been…
Inikwity You say you're nothing without God Then you kill me off…
Still Standing Still standing! Now that I've been said and done Fallen in t…
Stomp Out Think I'll be sick with all the things you say But…
Unity This is the time That we all should live as one…
