Michael Rose

Black Uhuru: Live at Rockpalast

Lowell "Sly" Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare

Sly's varied drum patterns, Robbie's bass drive, the straight offbeat and Thompson's warped guitar licks combined never had been heard in reggae before, a hypnotic wall of sound as the basis for the revolutionary Rastafarian lyrics of Michael Rose, Puma Jones, and Duckie Simpson, now and then interrupted by surprising echo effects. After the ROCKPALAST gig, BLACK UHURU enjoyed worldwide success.
