    Dag Dag is a Dutch comp which features the Hans Dulfer Afro track King Sized Davy.

    I remember a dealer playing this record at a fair in Camden. I looked for it for the next five years approx. On my first visit to Demonfuzz about 5 years ago I realized why I had never seen a copy, they had about 50!
