Lots of folks have done it but the Mayfield similarity would most likely be Van Dykes on Hue and Mala

 

1965 though

Dennis brown but i guess you knew that

Hi there Tim thank you but it's a soul version real soulful track from around 70/71 the acetate is uncredited and is Jamaican although no studio detaila regards S.

Hi there Dave thank you for that but alas it's not that one either.Regards S.

Six versions all in one clip here Simon

 

Hi there Pete no sorry non of these either thanks anyway .S.

As every fan of Jamaican made music knows, Curtis Mayfield & the Impressions were viewed as being GODS by the majority of reggae singers / musicians.

Too many CM song reggae cover versions to even try to list them all.

As the Van Dykes track had such an Impressions feel to it, no doubt some aspiring Kingston singer (or their producer) thought it would be a great idea to do a cover of the song. 

If Pete S can't come up with an issued version of the song, I guess it never did escape on anything other than an acetate (probably an exclusive made for a sound system that was not taken any further back in the day).

Hi Simon

 

Would you be meaning the LP-Only version by Jesse Harrison that a few quality crossovery type DJ's are currently playing?

Hi there Steve it's an uncredeted Jamaican acetate single sided with no info , was done around 70/71 when I get back from work I'll listen to the J.Harrison to compare it thanks for your help regards S.

No man is an island is on a 45 image on the web by Jesse Harrison
