Be honest when they talk about big producers, since when do people mention Bunny Lee's Name.

i have to sing the praises of radio shows that have spun jah music for years, even when it was "out of fashion" - many late nights of inspiration here in boston listening to "rockers" nightly on my drives home...

I'm not sure that the role of Sister Ignatius and ABS is 'unsung' as such - though perhaps the weight of influence they have had is not fully appreciated by many. As I research into it, I am increasingly discovering more and more 'names' popping up who were somehow involved with the school or with the people of or from the school. Its fascinating information (to me at least) and I've tried to crystallise it at:

I hope you will find it of interest too.
