Anyone who like Levi Williams' output, its small but good from what I've heard. Still not in possession of Fat Or Slim or Come Mi Bredda, but things like Peaceful Rasta, Me Want Gal, Duppy Jamboree and Mother In Law is great, great songs
Nice mellow voice too, check him out. He did mostly tunes for Mighty Cloud and the Abeng label, Bobby Mac's company

Dudley 1, this guy's music is as good as it gets, should be someone for you...

Levi Williams - Sadly there is no sign of his recordings being repressed in any shape or form. What a shame! Maybe someday..

That would be a dream, but will probably remain just that, a dream. I don't think Bob Mac is interested to reissue anything of his back catalog, sadly.

Does anyone knows if Levi still recording? Great voice, I would love to know if he is still around.

Please help me find this artist.

Can't solve your request Norma. Can only add that I'd also love to see and hear more from this great artist. Must keep hope going.

Figure if Claudius Linton can come back around, who says that Levi Williams can't do the same.

Original poster Ites has mentioned some of LW's classic tunes.

Another one to check for, his tune Famine on the Land. As he sings, If you buy the land you have to buy the stones, and if you buy the meat you have to buy the bones.

Anyone know or have his tune called Shaving Cream? That's one I'd like to hear

Come forward Levi Williams
