Ites,
I obviously know his name but always thought he was a recent reggae singer. What about his early albums, what's the vibe like? Is it inspired or quite usual?

Bim Sherman is a great singer with a particular high voice. His style remember me Yabby You songs and music sometimes, but less roots and with another voice and feeling of curse... Try this albums:

Love Forever
Century

Some killer songs are in...

Yo Carlos, yes, "across the red sea" have something good in too, i dont know "lovers leap" and "35 years from Alpha", is they better the "love forever" Carlos?
I have "miracle" too, but nothing killer in for me, this album is more spiritual that roots...

I agree about Love Forever. The last track '100 Years' is taken from a Dub Plate and is a classic IMO.

I reckon I had a HitRun Disco 45 by him in the 70s called "what sweet you so" or something, does that sound right to you guys who've been to the college of musical knowledge?

I remember it being by BIM and sounding REALLY good but haven't seen it around lately.
