Vannie - even a ole summady like me caan even memba dem ole time tunes. I remember "Stick and stones caan break my bones" and "Are you a duppy or a gunman" the latter I think is a much later song. I am going to ask my "know it all uncle" about this because he remembers everything.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> I didn't want to front it. It was ghetto music and in Jamaica they used to put that music down. 'This is why I didn't onject to them putting Cluett Johnson name in front of it. This music was a rebel music even then, the way society looked at it and at themselves, they treated it like it was against the idea of soicety. It was like we were the outcasts who played that music. When the Ska music had popoerly established itself there were so many tunes I was responsible for but I didn't go in front of them because I also had to be playing up at the society functions and the hotel dances, and there they would be looking down on me. maybe i wouldn't get enough work. you had to walk the line</div></div>
