'If You Were Only Mine' is one of Tanamo's most popular songs.Lovely ska vocals start with a beautiful, flowing, gentle horn theme.A great song backed by the Skatalites in their prime.The coupling is a killer ska tune by Don Drummond.'Bellevue' is the name of the mental hospital where Don Drummond spent his life until his death in 1969, after he was arrested for the murder of his girlfriend Margarita on New Year's Day, 1965.This is the last recording of the greatest trombonist in Jamaican history, who lived up to his name as a genius.You can hear Don's heartbreaking cry along with another take of 'No More' recorded on the album.
