Hello Bovine Ska and Rocksteady Listeners,

Last week was a very sad week as we lost three distinct talents, Ranking Roger of the English Beat, Winston Watson of the Meditations and talented guitarist, Winston ‘Bopee’ Bowen, whose vast career that spanned over four decades which resulted in thousands of songs on some of the most important albums from the 1970s through today. Over this two hour program we memorialized Bopee’s life and those many recordings backing Gregory Issacs, Dennis Brown, John Holt and many others over his illustrious career. We send our deepest respects to Bopee’s family, students, and many collaborators as well the family and friends of Winston Watson and Ranging Roger who we will also honor in the coming weeks. Love, Generoso and Lily
