-------------------------

I was waltzing with my darlin' to the Tennesse waltz

when an old friend I happened to see.

I introduced him to my loved one,

and while they were waltzing

my friend stole my sweet-heart from me.



I remember the night and the Tennessee waltz.

Now I know just how much I have lost.

Yes I lost my little darlin' the night

they were playing the beautiful Tennessee waltz.

Summary:
Maternal exposure to alcohol in-utero is a known risk and cause of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). FAS children suffer significant problems such as retarded intellect, stunted growth and nervous system abnormalities, social problems and isolation. Until now, fathers have not had a causal link to such disabilities. Ground breaking new research has been revealed which shows dads may have more accountability.

Maternal exposure to alcohol in-utero is a known risk and cause of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. FAS children suffer significant problems such as retarded intellect, stunted growth and nervous system abnormalities, social problems and isolation. Until now Fathers have not had a causal link to such disabilities. Ground breaking new research has been revealed which shows Dads may have more accountability.

Published in Animal Cells and Systems, researchers studied male mice exposed to varying concentrations of alcohol and one control group exposed only to saline. After exposure the mice were mated and resulting fetuses examined. The findings revealed previously unknown and riveting evidence that paternal alcohol consumption can directly affect fetal development.

A number of fetuses sired by males exposed to alcohol suffered abnormal organ development and or brain development. Those in the saline group were normal. So, can developmental abnormalities be predetermined at fertilization? This research proves so. The authors believe alcohol consumption affects genes in sperm which are responsible for normal fetal development.

Until now fathers' lifestyle choices have not seen any repercussion on their unborn children. This ground-breaking research provides the first definitive evidence that fathers' drinking habits pre-conception can cause significant fetal abnormalities.

Peter Tosh - Best Of Peter Tosh - Peter Tosh Biggest Hits - Justice Sound.


 



Jimmy Cliff - Best Of Jimmy Cliff - Justice Sound.

 
 

Bunny Wailer - Best of Bunny Wailer - Justice Sound.



Bunny Wailer
Bunny
Wailer (born Neville O'Riley Livingston, 10 April 1947 in Jamaica),
also known as Bunny Livingston and affectionately as Jah B,[1] is a
singer songwriter and percussionist and was an original member of reggae
group The Wailers along with Bob Marley and Peter Tosh. A three-time
Grammy award winner, he is considered one of the longtime
standard-bearers of reggae music. He has been named by Newsweek as one
of the three most important musicians in the world of music.[2]
The
young Livingston actually spent his earliest years in the village of
Nine Mile in St. Ann Parish. It was there that he first met Bob Marley,
and the two toddlers became fast friends. The boys both came from one
parent families; Livingston was being brought up by his father, Marley
by his mother.[3] Later, Bunny's father Thaddeus "Toddy" Livingston
lived with Bob Marley's mother Cedella Booker and had a daughter with
her named Pearl Livingston. Peter Tosh had a son, Andrew Tosh, with
another of Bunny's sisters, Shirley, making Andrew his nephew.[4]

Bunny
had originally gone to audition for Leslie Kong at Beverley's Records
in 1962, around the same time Bob Marley was cutting "Judge Not". Bunny
had intended to sing his first composition, "Pass It On", which at the
time was more ska-oriented. However, Bunny was late getting out of
school, missed his audition, and was told he wasn't needed. A few months
later, in 1963, he formed The Wailing Wailers with his stepbrother Bob
Marley and friend Peter Tosh, and the short-lived members Junior
Braithwaite and Beverley Kelso. As he was by some way the least forceful
of the group, he tended to sing lead vocals less often than Marley and
Tosh in the early years, but when Bob Marley left Jamaica in 1966 for
Delaware, replacing Bunny with Constantine "Vision" Walker, he began to
record and sing lead on some of his own compositions, such as "Who Feels
It Knows It", "I Stand Predominant" and "Sunday Morning". His music was
very influenced by gospel and the soul of Curtis Mayfield. In 1967, he
recorded "This Train", based on a gospel standard for the first time at
Studio One.

He was arrested on charges of possession of cannabis in June 1967 and served a 14-month prison sentence.[5]

JUSTICE SOUND - SHABBA RANKS - BEST OF SHABBA RANKS - 2 TIME GRAMMY WINN...


 

Shabba Ranks _ Mr Loverman (HQ widestereo).wmv

Published on May 6, 2012
Shabba
Ranks (born Rexton Rawlston Fernando Gordon; January 17, 1966,
Sturgetown, St. Ann, Jamaica) is a Jamaican dancehall musician.

He
was one of the most popular dancehall artists of his generation. He was
also one of the first Jamaican deejays to gain worldwide acceptance,
and recognition for his 'slack' lyrical expressions and content, when
"ridin' di riddim". His gravel toned, rough-sounding voice made him
instantly recognized worldwide
Ranks gained his fame mainly by
toasting (or rapping) rather than singing, similarly to his dancehall
contemporaries in Jamaica. A protégé of deejay Josey Wales, he arrived
on the international stage in the late 1980s, along with a number of
fellow Jamaicans including reggae singers Cocoa Tea and Crystal. Ranks
also worked with Chuck Berry and America rappers KRS-One and Chubb Rock.

He
secured a major record deal with Epic Records in 1991. Having released
five albums for a major label, Ranks remains one of the most prolific
dancehall artists to break into the mainstream.[1]

The stylistic
origins of the genre reggaeton may partially be traced back to the 1991
song "Dem Bow", from Ranks' album Just Reality. Produced by Bobby
"Digital" Dixon, the Dem Bow riddim became so popular in Puerto Rican
freestyle sessions that early Puerto Rican reggaeton was simply known as
"Dembow".[2] The Dem Bow riddim is an integral and inseparable part of
reggaeton, so much so that it has become its defining characteristic.[3]

His
biggest hit single outside of Jamaica was the reggae fusion smash "Mr.
Loverman" (memorable for bringing the cry "Shabba!" to the music world).
Other tracks include "Respect", "Pirates Anthem", "Trailer Load A
Girls", "Wicked inna Bed", "Caan Dun", and "Ting A Ling".

In
1993, Ranks scored another hit in the Addams Family Values soundtrack to
which he contributed a rap/reggae version of the Sly and the Family
Stone hit "Family Affair". His third album for Epic, "A Mi Shabba", was
released in 1995, however it fared less well. He was eventually dropped
by the label in 1996. However, he won two Grammy Awards for previous
work, and Epic went on to release a 'Greatest Hits' album, entitled
Shabba Ranks and Friends in 1999.

 




 

YellowMan - Best Of King Yellow Man - Justice Sound.


Published on Mar 3, 2015
Justice Sound Booking (904 444 9444)
King Yellow Man
Yellowman
(born Winston Foster, 15 January 1956, Kingston, Jamaica)[1] is a
Jamaican reggae (rub-a-dub) and dancehall deejay,
widely known as King
Yellowman. He was popular in Jamaica in the 1980s, coming to prominence
with a series of singles that established his reputation.

Winston
Foster grew up in a Catholic orphanage called Alpha Boys School in
Kingston, and was shunned due to having albinism, which was usually not
socially accepted in Jamaica. Alpha Boys School was known for its
musical alumni.[2] In the late 1970s Yellowman first gained wide
attention when he won a contest event in Kingston, Jamaica called "The
Tastee Talent Contest" where deejays would perform toasting. Like many
Jamaican deejays, he honed his talents by frequently performing at
outdoor sound-system dances.[3] In 1981, after becoming significantly
popular throughout Jamaica, Yellowman became the first dancehall artist
to be signed to a major American label (Columbia Records).[4] One
reviewer of Yellowman was quoted as saying "Listening to Yellowman sing
is like watching Michael Jordan play basketball. He knows he's got it,
you know he's got it, and it's a trip just experiencing him
perform."[citation needed]

His first album release was in 1982
entitled Mister Yellowman followed by Zungguzungguguzungguzeng in 1983
earning instant success. Yellowman's sexually explicit lyrics in popular
songs such as "Them a Mad Over Me" boasted of his sexual prowess, like
those of other reggae singers/deejays, earned Yellowman criticism in the
mid-1980s.[1] Yellowman appeared in Jamaican Dancehall Volcano Hi-power
1983 which featured other major dancehall musicians such as Massive
Dread, Josey Wales, Burro Banton and Eek-A-Mouse.[1]

Tom Waits - Chocolate Jesus





Uploaded on May 13, 2006
Tom Waits on Letterman


"Chocolate Jesus"
  • Don't go to church on Sunday
    Don't get on my knees to pray
    Don't memorize the books of the Bible
    I got my own special way
    Bit I know Jesus loves me
    Maybe just a little bit more

    I fall on my knees every Sunday
    At Zerelda Lee's candy store

    Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
    Make me feel good inside
    Got to be a chocolate Jesus
    Keep me satisfied

    Well I don't want no Anna Zabba
    Don't want no Almond Joy
    There ain't nothing better
    Suitable for this boy
    Well it's the only thing
    That can pick me up
    Better than a cup of gold
    See only a chocolate Jesus
    Can satisfy my soul

    [Solo]
    When the weather gets rough
    And it's whiskey in the shade
    It's best to wrap your savior
    Up in cellophane
    He flows like the big muddy
    But that's ok
    Pour him over ice cream
    For a nice parfait

    Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
    Good enough for me
    Got to be a chocolate Jesus
    Good enough for me

    Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
    Make me feel good inside
    Got to be a chocolate Jesus
    Keep me satisfied
