By 1978 Misty In Roots had their own orthodox roots sound with rastafarian lyrics, and started touring as a solo group. They were also a major force in the Rock Against Racism movement. Their first album Live at the Counter Eurovision 79 was recorded live in Belgium. Known songs are 'Ghetto Of The City', 'Mankind', 'Judas Iskariot', 'Follow Fashion', 'Poor And Needy'. Dance Hall Babylon', 'Own Them Control Them'. Despite Misty In Roots' huge success as a live act the band did not release their first album until 1979. The album Live At The Counter Eurovision, which was recorded live in Belgium during the band's 1978 tour, is today still proclaimed by many critics as the best live reggae album of all time.
