Marcia Griffiths, Freddie McGreggor, Cutty Ranks, Cocoa Tea, Greg Isaacs, et al...I will continue to hold those moments near and dear to my heart whenever I listen to these great artists--some of whom my father had worked with professionally in the world of dancehall reggae music. Rest in Peace Dad and nuff respek!!

Please sort it out e-music, cos I want to download the cheesy, but for me evocative, 'Electric Boogie'!
