    Earlier this year, I listened to the "full" body of works by Toots.

    Toots like Jimmy Cliff, belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame imo.

    RIP Toots.

      THERE IS ONLY ONE ONANDI LOWE!

      "Good things come out of the garrisons" after his daughter won the 100m Gold For Jamaica.


      "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.

                No doubt. He is a global icon.

                  RIP Toots. One of the original.

                  Toots has so many royalties to collect off "Bam Bam" and wasn't fussy to do so. It seems he never even went after most of that royalty.

                  RIP toots and thanks for the good times.

                    Toots, player of instruments


                    TOOTS Hibberts's exploits as a singer are well documented but how good a musician was he?
                    The Jamaica Observer posed that question to Jackie Jackson, bass player for Toots and The Maytals since 1969.
                    “As a musician, Toots was decent, very decent. But he's more of a singer than musician,” Jackson said. “He plays a decent drum, a nice little guitar, a decent little bass, and he fools around with the keyboard.”
                    Hibberts' musical prowess is on show on his latest album, Got To Be Tough, his first in more than a decade. It was released August 28 on the Trojan Jamaica/BMG imprint.
                    In addition to the title track, the 10-track set boasts Drop Off Head, Just Brutal, Freedom Train, Warning Warning, Good Thing That You Call, Stand Accused, Having A Party, Struggle, and a cover of Bob Marley's Three Little Birds.
                    “Ah him one play everything!” Jackson exclaimed. “None of us as musicians touched an instrument on that album. We weren't a 100 miles near to the studio and it came out pretty decent.”
                    The veteran musician said Hibbert was inspired to play multiple instruments on an album by Prince.

                      Does anyone know if Toots was given any awards by Jamaica Government?
