GREETINGS PEEPS



Greetings peeps.
I am pleased to announce that after a two hour meeting this morning with Mr Hesketh Benoit at the Bernie Grant Arts Centre in Tottenham, north London, we shook hands and this gentleman has now agreed to become the major in...
vestor in the publication of the book Portrait of a Legend and other Folks.
We shall now plan to launch this book [possibly] at 56 Hope Road, Kingston, former home of the legend, Robert Nesta Marley.
Kindly watch my ass and this space.
Bless.

THE GOLDEN AGE OF REGGAE


 
The bulk of the material that will adorn the book, Portrait of a Legend and other Folks, were all taken during what I refer to as the Golden Age of Reggae.

Namely from 1977 until 1987.

Images that precede that era are not of my concern.
This was an era that would never again be repeated.


I share with you now a few of the treasures I have bolted.
Portrait of a Legend and other Folks is truly the Golden Age of Reggae.

Many are CALLED but few are CHOSEN.
I was CHOSEN to photograph the GOLDEN AGE OF REGGAE.
