Have I just read out that Junior Delgado was in prison (18 months??) during the year 81. Does someone know which was the reason in order that Delgado , one of my favorite singers, there been in prison?

Not sure why, but I have a guess as to where he was locked up.



DB

where?

18 months sounds like a bogus weed conviction.

When did Fort Augustus come out, I think it was a little earlier than 81, but that could have been about his experience there.

Jux used the time to compose and learn to play instruments.

Didnt realise you could fit 18 months into a year

yes , but why he go to prision? weed?? could be

might have been herbs but rumour has it jux was involved in some other stuff. he was d brown and g isaacs best friend if thats any hint.

Why everyone so interested in private life alla sudden deh so?
Jux was a tough man. No messing. A tough man. But sincere. If him was on your side then you need fear no man. He was also a sincere rastaman. Him not into no drugs business so forget that, apart from the usual herbs. but a man has to fight when you come from the ghetto and Junior aaarticle ghetto youth fi true. (And what was the badness Dennis was into? Dennis was a victim of badness, not a villain. Think about it. Too many peopel just believe the labba labba dem hear.) You think a peaceful rastaman like Augustus Pablo would have been team up with Jux if he was really a bad guy? But that rough voice don't come from easy living.
Babylon put Jux in prison. If you want to know you coulda find out through the channels. But don't let it deceive you. I had some work runnings with him once and he was an easy man to get along with. The man was a bredda and worthy of our admiration.
