I'm pretty sure the Hawkeye disco 'Undying Love' is a Gussie production
having just listened to it again - not one of his best though.
There are four dubs of Rods voice on Scientist Dub Landing Vol 1 on
Starlight: Landing, Time Passage, Meteroite, Galaxy ('Road is Rough'?)
and I don't think all of these are picked up in the discos you list and
they are all killers. I've been looking for these tunes for long time
and trhey never show so perhaps they were specials.
Although out of the period, honourable mention should be made to Rod's
recut of Ethiopian Kings on Jungle Royalty around 1989 - I still play
this out from time to time and it drops.

12":
Give My Love A Try (Studio 1 12" - DLP 1989, which I think also refers
to year released). The other side is Ethiopians: Reggae Music.
This actually sounds like a Gussie production, not very Studio 1-ish.
