Burning Spear "South Africa 2000"

Burning Spear advocates messages of honesty, peace, and love, which tie in with his religious and political messages of Rastafarianism and black unity. Along with his musical message, the Spear continues to tour all over the world. His concerts often last 2 hours long with several bongo drum solos by Burning Spear himself.

Burning Spear was awarded the Order of Distinction in the rank of Officer on October 15, 2007

@ckaski but it was then followed by some money issues and law suit against some record co and a lawyer which kind of tainted it, also he had more sons and grandchildren so that wasn;t his only child

[ckaski]

@1notasheeple Well, as you can see, I'm trying to do my own thing with my own CD (just released in September). Perhaps you may know of some venues down there interested in presenting some Jam Band style Reggae. Please let me know if you do.

@ckaski i also know that spear and marley wanted a black american base of fans, but the truth is white people are the ones who support reggae, black americans wayyy prefer hip-hop......the vast majority

@ckaski ahh memory is a little foggy anyway but lenford richards is playing with the jolly boys which is old school shit!! but you sound good my friend!! will u be down in va?

[ckaski]

@1notasheeple . . . No, it wasn't Wayne Armond. It was Eugene Gray. BTW, as in this SA video, the only 2 guitarists he had on the Calling Rastafari tour were Cecil Ordonez and myself.

i really like MISHKA seems like a nice guy and one hell of a recording artist.....i also noticed there is a lot of turnover in his band he either fires alot of people or they quit.....i should ask shayar about it as he lives near me....but he's not one for talking either! lol win rodney had a really good jazz guitarist (wayne arnold?) for the calling rastafari tour and before that he had a long time guitarist LENFORD RICHARDS who was really really good and a very nice down to earth guy !!!
