    Forum massive, I would like to speak about

    this forgotten Jakan genuis. This man helped shaped our music that is now INT'L. It just goes to show how creative the people of Ja are, and what they can accomplish if they put their minds to it.

    Please pay attention because I will drop another thread will be related in some ways to this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpqPK...eature=related

    Let me now introduce none other than Mr.Don Drummond:

      You do agree that these men and woman has created a brand of music; which is now INTL and is now infused with culture of the Jakan people?

                Jawge, Don Drummond got his props here quite a few times. And...the local papers (Gleaner and Observer) have done their part in bigging-up Don Drummond.

                What I think we have been remiss on though, is that of giving more props to Don Drummond's alma mater (Alpha Boy's) which has produced some greats. The following is a list of some of the Alpha Boy's grads:
                King Yellow Man; Leroy Smart; Dr Leslie Thompson; Tommy McCook; Dizzy Moore; Rico Rodriguez; "Horsemouith" Wallace and Dean Fraser et. al.

                  Okay I'm schooled, but we all agree they did wonderful things for the music which is now an INTL brand. Yes?

                    You are right and we should look into the reson why alpa boys isn't putting any quality in these times (it's needed badly) . I will leave that to be discussed in my education thread (coming soon

                      Yes, Historian's presence is well needed in this thread. We need to find if and why Alpha no longer produce the quality of yesteryears.

                        Could be lack of funding and support from various institutions.

                          True... or lack of quality teachers/Instructors!

                            True dat.Let me give a hint on what I will say on education.

                            Look at reggae, it's a brand bringing in millions to the island (granted the system in Ja isn't set up for the general populace to reap windfalls but that's different thread). Alpha boys a key institution to the evolution of this brand lies there and not at the forefront.

                            Do you see the US not paying attention to MIT and CALTECH (two of the top engineering schools in the land. Engineering brings in billions in terms of defence and consumer items) Yuh see where mi going now boss?

                              Ska alive and well but not in jamaica,i have questioned why a annual blues festival in jamaica and not a ska one
                              THERE IS ONLY ONE ONANDI LOWE!

                              "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.
