Burning Spear: Reggae On Course
Reggae music has gone a lot of places over the years, from minimalist dub to culture-warring dancehall. Almost 40 years on, Spear still hews to the reggae basics: a deep, easy groove; brassy R&B flavorings; and a mystical take on history. His new CD is Jah is Real.

Claudius Linton interview at Reggae Vibes NL
The influence of Burning Spear on the music cannot be overstated. He had a tremendous impact in the mid seventies with songs like 'Marcus Garvey', 'Slavery Days' and 'Invasion' to name only a few. With those he spearheaded the cultural movement in the music for several years. Spear had the sort of 'country' sound that opened the door for many similar singers and songwriters, such as Claudius Linton.

Kenya: The Cutting Edge
When almost everybody else was engulfed in the madness sparked by the dispute over last December's presidential election, one Kenyan remained steadfast in his pitch for patriotism and deserves national honours, says Kamau Kabira, lauding singer Eric Wainaina. Kamau adds: "When others threw caution to the wind, Eric's patriotic song rang out loud and clear on all radio stations. And it was very reassuring. He should be considered for the Elder of the Burning Spear award."

A Ghanaian reggae music star, Shasha Marley, who went on break for a couple of months, has announced his return to the music scene with his latest musical album which boasts of the title track, Buum Buum, Waa Waa.

The ten - track CD album has songs like Maata Family, Lost And Found, So Nyame Mu, I’m Not Ashamed Of The Gospel, Evil Spirit, Walk Away among others.
