I have the same issue as you......Dragon Records release, no Pressure Drop.
but you look it up aat allmusic.com and you're brought to this release on Mango records with a significantly different track list...omits "Sit Right Down", "I Can't Believe", "Redemption Song", "Daddy", & It Was Written Down" (that's five of eight tracks)and adds; "Time Tough", "In The Dark", "Love Is Gonna Let Me Down", "Got to be There", "Country Road", "Pressure Drop" and "Sailing On" Making for a significantly different album.
I have "Pressure Drop" on The Harder They Come, so I'm not tooo troubled about it not being included, but the other six omissions sure have me curious. I'm assuming that the Mango release is the U.S. release, and the Dragon release is U.K.
Follow Ups:
Well, the tracks you mentioned "Time Tough", "In The Dark", "Love Is Gonna Let Me Down", "Got to be There", "Country Road" & "Sailing On"
are all on the 'In the Dark' LP, which was the follow up to Kingston(see link).
The Rolling Stone site lists the Mango issue as being from '76, so i guess this is a repackage of material from these two earlier LPs?.Incidentally, In the Dark is a much better LP.
