DEEP ROOTS

SOUND SYSTEM BUSINESS (very rare, brilliant documentary)

that would be the JBC Radio Mikey Dread, dread at the controls... to further confuse things, he also passed away a couple few years ago, i believe he had a brain tumor.


Errol Thompson, the famed engineer for Randy's Studio and later Joe Gibbs, suffered a similar confusion with his namesake...... a popular JBC Radio jock named... Errol Thompson.

so, these things happen from time to time.

ah... i see now that some others clarified the whole Michael Campbell thing... that's what i get for trying to view this board on a phone! (i fat-fingered past an entire page)e

Mikey Dread who passed away and the Mikey Dread radio DJ were the same person.

yes, i'm quite aware of Mikey Dread's passing but i believe someone further back in the thread mentioned that one of the other Michael Campbells in question had also passed away.
