Matthew, Prince Mohammed was aka dj Jah Berry? and George Nooks too?
King Stitt's admirerers call him Stitch.
Coxsone addressed Lee Perry as Little Lee.
and I believe Joe Higgs was the Teacher. (of Bob)
the one Prince Heron I'm pretty sure is perhaps better known as Sammy Dread, but then I'm getting into the alias/nom de plume dept. hard to believe Garnett Silk started his career as Bimbo!!!
