Hello Bovine Ska and Rocksteady Listeners
This week’s show starts off with sad news that singer, Noel Bunny Brown, succumbed to cancer today at the age of 67. Brown was an exceptional solo artist who cut many great tracks for Derrick Harriott, and Noel formed the legendary vocal group, The Chosen Few. We send our respects to his family and friends and we will honor him on an upcoming show. We started off the program with two sets of ska, including a happy birthday selection from Bob Marley, in honor of his 74th heavenly birthday. A Count Set of mento followed and then a reggae set selected by Lily, before we launched into our spotlight of producer, M.G. Mahtani’s Shalimar Label, Great cuts from Glen Brown, Stranger Cole and The Hofner Brothers on this spotlight. Please add this show to your playlist, favorite it, or share it wherever people love the sounds of a young Jamaica. XOXO Generoso and Lily
