Sorry, Lewis brothers were the first ones mentioned.
Yes Rockersmood, interesting question.
I also would like to know if IQULAH and Ini Kamoze are family. First time I heard IQULAH (tune called Wagga Wagga) I thought it was Ini Kamoze.

"Me and Thomas we are bredder, same mother different father"
So does this mean:
Jah Thomas + Toyan = Half Brothers?
That is highly unlikely because that line has been used "loosely" in the dancehall fraternity, Tonto Irie uust used it referring to Admiral Bailey the same way and I'm certain Admiral B and Tonto are not releated in any way

No thats wrong Rasteddy. Patrick Andy took the name "Andy" because his singing style was alot like Horace's. Btw, Horace Andy's name is Horace Hinds.

Black Roots, according to the cover-backside of (same-titled) album 1983;
*Jabulani Ngozi* (rhythm-guitar) and his younger brother
*Kondwani Ngozi* (congas, back-vocals), both origin from JA,
hopefully they're still with the band.
