Description

Still sealed with bonus dvd

Probably no other Jamaican artist has brought more international acclaim to his island home than Desmond Dekker, barring, of course, Bob Marley, but Dekker came first. Many were introduced to the island’s unique musical sound by the singer’s many hits, most notably his hits Israelites and 0.0.7. (Shanty Town). Needless to say, he was even more influential in his homeland. Dekker’s vast catalog of music — songs that defined the ska, rocksteady, and reggae eras — have provided the singer with a rich legacy that has rarely been equaled. On May 25, 2006, Dekker passed away at age 64 in his London home. This cd and dvd release was recorded and filmed at Dingwalls in London back in February of 2002. The album and concert is a great collection of some of his biggest hits
