Hi. I know very little about Yami Bolo. Could someone give me a brief synopsis of him and recommend say 10 great tunes by him? Thanks Adam

I love most of his work. He has been active since the late eighties and has done some fabolous work with Augustus Pablo. His voice is similar to Junior Reid and Michael Rose.

His early work is his best. Check out "Ransom", "Jah made them all" and "Up life street"
