From: "Rev. Linda Slug" 

Here are the chords to the song What me Name? by the Jamaican funk-ethnic 
crossover artist, Reggae Spoons. His "wife" (officially they are not 
married) Joan plays bass, while Reggae plays electric and sometimes 
acoustic guitars. The following is transcribed from Spoons' only UK 
performance ever at the Citadel, St. Helens in 1988 as part of a Rasta 
Revival concert. Bootlegs of the concert are easily available in 
Liverpool city centre (Try Probe or Scene of the Crime), but the only 
official release of the song was on a jamaican only 45 which has long 
since been deleted. Reggae was a pivotal figure in the early 70s reggae 
breakthrough and was reputed to have played in bands with Desmond Dekker 
and Pete Tosh during the 1960s.

Instrumental break.
Reggae sometimes plays the sax here, but on this occasion (St. Helens) a 
member of a different band, uncredited on the sleeve played the melody of 
No Woman No Cry on the pipes. It fits quite well.
