About this listen

This week Roger and Devin are joined by Jamaican Roots pioneer Winston Jarrett. He tells us all about his early childhood, forming The Flames with Alton Ellis in the early days of ska and together cutting some of Alton's biggest tunes, embarking on a solo career, and how the inequities of the music business that Winston had to overcome at every turn led to him switching to self-production in the mid-70s. Don't miss this rare chance to hear from one of Reggae's most under-appreciated stars.

Records Of The Week:

Roger - Prince Buster Allstars - "Dance, Cleopatra, Dance"
Devin - Reggae Boys - "Selassie"
