British reggae group Capital Letters formed in 1972 in Wolverhampton, England. They originally achieved recognition as a soul outfit on the live circuit, but influenced by their Jamaican roots, they developed a style that personified the experiences of Black youth. In 1978, they were signed to Greensleeves Records and recorded the hit single "Smoking My Ganja." The popularity of songs relating to both the pleasures and restrictions of smoking marijuana assured the group popularity outside the reggae market. In 1979 they embarked on a triumphant tour of the college circuit, followed by a series of European concerts. They also released "UK Skanking," which surpassed their debut. The singles were all featured on the group’s debut album, alongside the tracks "Out of Africa," "Daddy Was No Murderer," and an ambiguous tribute to the Ugandan leader, "President Amin.", Rovi
