Suns Of Arqa was the band that backed Prince Far I on one of his concerts.

Sam Hugh's "Woman A Follow Man" (on the wiser dread comp. from nighthawk) is almost laughably sexist. Too bad, because the rhythm and melody are excellent.

Thanks Ron


The man that gunned down Prince far I has a lot to answer for. Robbing this world of one of its great reggae prophets.

yes..suns of arqa did several albums . on yellowman/mad professor "a feast of yellow dub" yellow has a dig at prince fari on a vocal snippet there , doubtless on the disagreement between he and fari. i used to love yellowman for the liveliness of the mans riddims and lyrics when i was a boy. great material...until you realise how slack he is
