Alpha Blondy

In checking him out thoroughly on youtube after his death it seems to me
that while he didn't bring an unusual sound (maybe a bit of African flavor
but that isn't even completely unususal) he was just really, really good at
a lot of different roots styles and had great musicians behind him.

I regret that he is one of reggae's big names that I will never get to see,
along with:
Peter Tosh
Bob Marley
Jacob Miller
Puma Jones
Dennis Brown
and the list goes on.

cheers to Alpha Blondy.
