Listening to the historic recordings of Jackie
Opel's voice as he rides over the Ska riddims will
once again remind the listener just how special
Jamaican Music is. Singers and Players of
Instruments, each one carrying more skills and
talents than your average world star together.
The injustice that comes with the world
economical situation becomes painfully clear, when
we realize how this music is recorded on material
that even for the time wasn't the best of best.
That stuff was reserved for the rich countries,
and only now with digital possibilities there is
somewhat of a more equal situation as computers
can more or less replace a complete studio.
Almost 30 minutes of sweet, soulful, energetic
music, with Jackie Opel singing lover's tunes as
well as spirituals. For (y)our listening pleasure
and meditation!
