UJAMA
RECORDS
Independent Reggae label: Ujama Records was owned by Prince
Jazzbo. It's only British single was, 'We'll See' by Prince Jazzbo. Its
catalogue number, JA-6, suggests that there may be others in the series, but it
seems likely that the number may merely have had some reference to the original
Jamaican release - there were many more Ujamas in that country. 'We'll See'
had a matrix number of LYN-4742, which indicates a Lyntone pressing from 1977.
