Further Information

Originally born named 'Ewart', U Roy got his famous name from a young family
member who couldn't pronounce Ewart and the nickname stuck. Known as the
Originator, U-Roy wasn't the first DJ, nor even the first to cut a record,
but with a career now spanning over 5 decades, he is a legend indeed. He was
the first to shake the Jamaican nation and he originated a style so
distinctly unique by DJing over old record cuts, that he single-handedly
changed Jamaica's music scene forever.

Junior Murvin achieved fame as the falsetto singer of "Police And Thieves"
which was an international hit for him and innovative reggae production
artiste Lee "Scratch" Perry. The song has been covered by artists as diverse
as The Clash and Boy George, and he has maintained his profile over twenty
years after it was made. In the dancehalls Junior Murvin has scored with
hits: the ultra easy skank of "Miss Kushie", the seminal "Cool Out Son", and
others like "I'm In Love", "Bad Man Posse" and "Muggers In The Street";
releasing enough material to maintain his reputation, without ever flooding
the market. In late 1998 London-based Dubwise Productions were visiting Port
Antonio in Jamaica where they were introduced to Junior Murvin. This led to
the recording of the solid "Wise Man", currently available on a 10" single.
