hi guys

trevor already explained to us on an earlier thread that he was the dj on the black star liner sound system in trenchtown together with one jah barry.

he also cited some sides he recorded which i'm trying to find presently - but so far without luck.

i imagine they'll be very diificult to find.

do you still own any of your own recordings, trevor? you know, dr alimantado mentions in the booklet to his house of singles compilation that he had to buy some of his own singles from dealers for upto 80 pounds.

its ironic that the artists often don't seem to own copies of their own work.

peace & love & respect

I find it hard to understand why you would use the same stage/performing name
as someone else....
It would be like if you were Roy and started calling yourself I ROY or U ROY.
Especially if you are a recording artist.
and especially if you worked with the ORIGINAL artist.

Did you record under that name too?
