I stop at “So Many Records” every morning. First audio of the day and it often gets me time traveling, mostly in a backwards direction but not entirely linear, more like the opium fueled dreams of Robert DeNiro’s character in Sergio Leone’s “Once Upon A Time In America.” The older you get the bigger your memories play in your present. The only reggae we had when we first met Kevin in 1976 was Bob Marley and Jimmy Cliff. I am one of Kevin’s friends who was blown away by the “THIS IS REGGAE MUSIC (Volume 3)” collection that Kevin talks about in yesterday’s post.

I agree, life changing.
When I talk to people about reggae now and tell them that I had the Upsetters Super Ape, or Jah Lions Columbia Colly when they came out. They are jaw droppingly amazed. I can still recall the trunk of KPs silver Vega, stuffed with boxes of it all. Thank you Kevin!
