    Barrington has one of the greatest voices ever in my opinion. Praise his name 1983, my love dont come easy and ever sinse are just a few favorites. 'Hammer' has such a good vibe. Can go on forever. Bless up and stay real!

    Barrington Levy is legendary. It's funny how he calls Ebro Ibru...and out of respect Ebro doesn't correct him.

      You be surprised a lot of people are discovering real music. Thanks to my uncle for his love of reggae and his sound system. Dub/ cassette deck still in his car, one of a kind old school guy.
      I grew up with real music.
      Barrington Levy is a Legend. His voice is one of a kind. Murderer is another tune. Everton Blender, "lift up your head" Maxi Priest, "close to you" Gregory Isaac Night Nurse, Beres Hammon... I can go on and on and on😊
