It’s Leeds Carnival. The oldest West Indian Carnival in Europe. Yes, older than Notting Hill.. get over it… last night, I heard them playing this at around 2am! I was singing along! Big tune! I met Freddie.. he was so nice. I met him in a night out in Birmingham, think it was The Hummingbird… he bought me Champagne. He’s a lovely bloke, really, he is. And this is one of the best reggae songs of all time! I was a young mix race singer at the time, which enabled me to meet him! Honestly, he was so lovely. A real gent.🇯🇲🏴🇬🇧
Those who are reggae fanatic like me, will remember the late Denis Wilson, the Radio 🔘 3 Reggae presenter in the 90s in Zimbabwe .This song was his introduction to the session ❤. That is when my love reggae began.🎉
He had a stroke but is doing well, just saw a post from him yesterday thanking everyone for there thoughts & prayers on Facebook. He's alright now, out of the hospital, healing 🙏🏼
Sweet reggae music...freddie with a beautiful melody...the horns...the guitar skanking...bass and drums....women singerinh...keyboard with the doo dee doos....what a sweet sweet feeling
Watching him performing on sunfest despite his health his sons helping him the whole way was a tear jerker. Glad I was brought in this era. Bless up Legend!
It was so good to see Freddie at Reggae Festival in August 23. He was in a wheelchair and he's getting on so God Bless that Man!! He's given us all lots of great memories ❤
This is why I cannot go to many current shows which are no more than Karaoke (artist singing over a backing track) you can never beat a good live performance. I truly feel blessed that I am old enough to have seen pretty much all the reggae greats in their prime performing with live musicians.
Derik even that would be a miscalculation... just because he or you may not know about Freddie doesn’t mean he’s under appreciated... depends on your own knowledge of music world wide.. Gwen Stefan named her son after Freddie... so yeah expand your musical understanding 😊
This guy is so nice! Total gent! Met him when I was a ‘singer’ in the 1980s... I was traveling down South to The Hummingbird in Brum! We drank Champagne together, obvs! This tune was MASSIVE, not unlike his beautiful personality. He treated me so well and I had danced/sang to many of his songs as a young lass. Very happy memories from (me) an aspiring singer who never got anywhere. Thanks, Freddie. These were great days for reggae.
Nuff nice music at 9pm in my basement playing my Freddie, every body put the blame on me, I'm not in the position to maintain u,and many more. Nuff love Freddie we love you.
@richard stanton Without a doubt! I was letting some young at heart listeners know that Outkast "Spottieottiedopaliscious" has the full lace of Reggae/ Dancehall (with the Big horns, deep baseline, driving drums 🥁 shaking shakers, and triangles 🔺️ 🎶)! One Luv ❤️!!!
He is my favourite reggae artist!! He sounds AMAZING live! I had the honour to meet him and get pics with him in August. I've got videos on my channel if anyone wants to see pics and concert footage.
One of the last concerts I went to with my mother before she passed was to see Freddie in concert in Toronto. Was an amazing show and night to remember. This music is food for the soul ❤️
Beautiful tune reminds me when I was young still back home on the reggae session on zim radio station every Friday.. once you heard this track you knew its reggae time by the local DJ then Dennis Wilson he was good & back then reggae music was pretty difficult to get your hands on, so had to be ready for these radio sessions to hear the latest reggae & this Freddie McGregor track was always his intro tune for years.🔥
I love lots of reggae singers but Freddy is truly my favorite, man have style and class, original to the max. Big up yourself Freddy, keep the music coming boss!
I pray for Freddie’s recovery, God is able❤
Pray for him to give his heart to the Lord Jesus Christ for he has given most of his life to entertainment. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his one soul ?
@@setapart3452 I pray he stays far away from jesus and any other idol - EXO 20:3. ISA 44:4-6
Reggae is such a universal love language ❤️
Sure sure
I'm from Kenya eat Africa

The song brings tears to my eyes anytime I hear. It reminds me of my late adopted mother Julie Childress. May lovely soul Rest In Peace

Uh huh!! Amazing right!
And a big up 2

Pure talent..same voice as when he was younger
This is why I cannot go to many current shows which are no more than Karaoke (artist singing over a backing track) you can never beat a good live performance. I truly feel blessed that I am old enough to have seen pretty much all the reggae greats in their prime performing with live musicians.
We pray for Freddie's recovery from a stroke.
😮. What!?
MADDDD!!!!!
My mommy went through a stoke. I have 1thing to say ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤God is good
Oooh meeen....hope he is alright love his music....longing to see him ooh
Just saw him perform live 🙏🏿
Still fresh in 2023! Big up Freddie, big up David Rodigan! Big chune!
They don't make em like this anymore. Respect to the OGs
how can his voice sound so young and refined i mean we all know but gotdamn Freddie Ever Ready is a Great Voice sounds like the Cd at his tender Age
It's remarkable, isn't it? I think it is "just" raw talent and continued practice. One of my personal favorites in this regard is Roy Shirley (RIP).
I just love it and love it and love it again.
Beautiful song, wonderful voice
He was born to do this.
Among the most consistent reggae sounds of the last 50yrs along with Beres hammond and Marcia Griffiths
one of the best reggae numbers of all time!
Love the backup singers! They sound sweet, look fine, and just have so much soul!
Massive giant born for this much important genre. Much respect to him..
Reggae music rule the world
Clayton Scott mo
💯💯💯
This is a quality talent, massively underappreciated.
Freddy is Jamaican legend....what are talking about ?
@@hopeeverlasting5400 Maybe he means on a larger commercial scale, if so then I agree.
Derik even that would be a miscalculation... just because he or you may not know about Freddie doesn’t mean he’s under appreciated... depends on your own knowledge of music world wide.. Gwen Stefan named her son after Freddie... so yeah expand your musical understanding 😊
talent at its best 👌
You're very right about that.
This guy is so nice! Total gent! Met him when I was a ‘singer’ in the 1980s... I was traveling down South to The Hummingbird in Brum! We drank Champagne together, obvs!
This tune was MASSIVE, not unlike his beautiful personality.

Thanks, Freddie. These were great days for reggae.
Nuff nice music at 9pm in my basement playing my Freddie, every body put the blame on me, I'm not in the position to maintain u,and many more. Nuff love Freddie we love you.
Whoever is on the controls is a wizard. The mixdown is perfect for the ear.
Amazing! He sounds exactly like his record. I’ve always loved this song. Puts me a happy mood
Is Freddie McGregor from your country, Jamaican Queen?
@@jonathankaranja5857 Yes, he is.
God bless and keep you protected Sir Freddie..my mommy's favourite song...❤️🇿🇼

Back in the old days, when, I was in the navy, this was my go to sleep song {little sleep}. Will always love this song.

Freddie McGregor should have been able to have more mainstream success in the music industry bob Marley natural successor musically.
The life we live, shall we worry when it the end, long life
