Yes, that was Roland Burrell and his partner Dakin from Nelson Rd off Maxfield Avenue. I think though that Burrell was originally from Port Maria.

Yes, Fred Locks wrote and sang the original. I can't recall if any other artist covered that song.
Johnny Clarke had a some songs which kinda/somewhat sound like Black Starliner. Remember these: None Shall Escape The Judgment In This Time;
Move Out Of Babylon Rastaman; & Them Never Love Poor Marcus?"The contribution of forumites and others who visit shouldn’t be discounted, and offending people shouldn’t be the first thing on our minds. Most of us are educated and can do better." Mi bredrin Sass Jan. 29,2011Comment

OK thanks. I remember Roland Burrells "Johnny Dollar" but don't remember any of his other songs."It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men" - Frederick DouglassComment

Back then in the 70's, when Glen was skinny bredrin with a Jackson-5 Afro, and singing out of the High Life Club in Spain Town, he did a song with these words:
We've come a long way
battered and bruised every day yeah
Shackled and chained
only dignity remained but
we gonna make it anyway
Glen now lives in Ft Lauderdale and does music more like a hobby than a career. Yes, back then he was also a competent drummer."The contribution of forumites and others who visit shouldn’t be discounted, and offending people shouldn’t be the first thing on our minds.

Yep, I knew about his JC connection too. Back in his day I had a coz (a trackstar 100 & 200 that you guys likely called Bolton) who used to tell me that Clarke was a student there."The contribution of forumites and others who visit shouldn’t be discounted, and offending people shouldn’t be the first thing on our minds.
