More Than Double Barrel: Dave Barker Interview

Nice little interview with Dave Barker in M Magazine.

I was born and bred in Kingston, Jamaica and as a young boy aged nine or so I used to listen to a soul music radio station called WINC. They had a lot of live shows with people like The Impressions, The Temptations, The Drifters, James Brown, Clyde McPhatter and Jerry Butler. Of course they used to play a lot of English stuff too – Tom Jones, Lulu, Cliff Richard, Dusty Springfield – she was fantastic – and Matt Monroe just to name a few. I would listen to all these songs and be swept away, it was like being bathed in wonderful creative music all around.

Lloyd Brevett: Last Of A Legacy

Nice article in last friday’s Jamaica Observer.

SAXOPHONIST Lester Sterling, the lone surviving original member of the Skatalites and Doreen Schaeffer, long-time vocalist with the pioneer band, have added their voices to the list of persons paying tribute to bass player Lloyd Brevett. Brevett, the band’s original bass player, died last Thursday in Kingston at age 80.
