Really like what I'm hearing so far. Can't understand the lyrics, lol, but everything else is really cool. Could definitely picture a few different scenarios where it would be good to have this playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me think of my favorite Marley song: Back in the mid to late 70's believe it or not I was selling LEGAL drugs to phamacies/hospitals in the islands shipped from Miami. Worked the islands for three years or so. And yes the stories are wide I'm lucky to still be alive. Love Marley, Jimmy Cliff and Burning Spears aka Winston Rodney were my favorites back then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how much you read but A Brief History of Seven Killings by Marlon James is a really good book. Would probably touch on a lot of your experience down there, as it's set roughly in that same era. It was difficult for me to read a lot of it because much of the dialogue is written in patois with no translation. But by the end, I knew what certain things like bomboclaat and batty boy meant.

I knew a little bit about that side of Jamaica- organized crime, shanty towns, the drug trade- but it was an educational and entertaining read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Syracuse concert on Youtube last weekend... holy shnikees. Jimi Hendrix, James Brown, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, and maybe a little Springsteen... all in one tiny dude. Unreal.

sandyclawedtiger 206 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 While I have golf attention. Since I saw the last I have gotten back into Wet Willie and Jimmy Hall. Holy smokes. This man was almost 70 doing this. With Jeff Beck. When this pandemic mess is over with I'm going to make sure I see him live again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
