Only 62 likes. Cannot believe it. These guys are the granddaddies of Reggae music. Oh well. At least Old Timers like myself appreciate this stuff.

bad thing with oldtimers like yourself is that you suck at technology so you can't spot other videos for this song that have more than 10 million views. You are not the "special one" you thought you were.
I'm 51 and these guys are rock steady legends to GenX (the 1989 move Drugstore Cowboy also gave them a boost). I have this album on cassette (cringe). But there is no chance DD&A will be ever forgotten! ❤💚🖤
How do you know how many likes it? Me likes it.

Rest in Peace to the "King of Ska" Desmond Dekker!
After the storm, there must be a calm.

I know when Desmond Dekker sang this song in 1968 the 3 Rd festival songs I was down town at the float parade going to the national stadium 🏟️ for the grand gala,ok.
Timeless sentiments
good music and words. great beat
Fantastic song❤❤❤❤
that song The Israelites reminds me of the summer of 1969 in smoggy Los Angeles.
Best Tune Ever..!
Yea...
I completely missed that song when it came out; I was in Vietnam and they apparently didn't play it on Armed Forces radio.
I was in the service back then too. I have loved this song all my life. Hey Brother Thank you sincerely for goin to Vietnam.
Magnífico
"he is actually saying": my eyes have seen the light!
He says "EVERY MOUTH CAN BE FED" Seems like they are some purposely starving people. Especially in 🇮🇱❤🎉
As a Canadian I know what it is to have horrible neighbours. One day soon Israel will be free of theirs. Hopefully all this carnage will lead all parties to figure out a final solution to the problem. Long Live The Israelites!!!!!!!!!
