Thank you for this video, Puma was my grandmother and died before I was born. Even though she is not with us, the music with her beautiful voice still lives on till this day.
Hi can you tell us more about puma
So good so nice to find out puma,s offspring!
Please share more of her story
Please link up with me and i will give u her award n memorabilia collection
The first time I heard Black Uhuru's music.....what stood out for me was your Grandma Puma's high octave range......she stood out......my deepest condolences.....she passed away young 😢 but her music resonates for eternity 💔 🙏 😢
Thank you for such an amazingly descriptive and soulful tribute to our beautiful Puma. It is a worthy testimonial that her family and fans will be proud to hear. We miss her and her lovely voice and spirit every day. Legends live forever!
Nothing to add!👍🏿

Mad respect. So long over due. Puma Jones was so influentual. Great work on this clip. Thank you. Learned so much.
Thanks for watching ✌️ Jah bless
Continue to Rest In Peace, Puma. You were indeed a rare gem...
Their hit track Solidarity encapsulates Black Uhuru for me.
Yes I ✌️ powerful song that
Puma was so beautiful ❤️ and such an amazing performer. Interesting fact: The Ras Cudjoe who introduced Puma to Duckie was mentioned in the first verse of Guess Who's coming to dinner. Hes the Rasta who was coming over the hills. Youre welcome 😊
Oh man..am grateful for hearing this my brother..as a youth growing up in Jamaica late 80s early 90s I use to hear Black UHURU songs on the radio but never knew what really happened to this queen but now I know may jah rest her soul 🤛🏾
All I know is that Black Uhuru was never as good without Miss Puma Jones.... With that said... She had an absolutely stellar and incredible voice that stirs up a whole host of emotions...
Thanks for sharing... as always much peace, grace and love to you and yours n' God bless brother
Blessings Ras ✌️
Fi real!
Wow. Thank you so much for making this tribute.
As a young teenager in England in the early 80s I was obsessed with Black Uhuru, and to this day they are my favourite ever group.
That classic line up of Michael, Duckie and Puma is the greatest ever BH incarnation, and it was Puma's harmonies that really made it so. They turned out some incredible music between 1978 and 1983, and I doubt they would ever have stood out the way they did without the dimension that Puma added. She was the coolest female musician I had ever seen.
I was also lucky enough to see the classic line up live in 1984, a memory I will treasure for the rest of my life.
Today Jah 9 reminds me of Puma with her confidence and ability, and I have always wondered if she was inspired by her.
RIP Sandra Jones, and thank you for those many hours of musical enjoyment you gave me when I was growing up.
PUMA...Rest In Eternal Peace❤💛💚
Selah 🙏
I'm from South Carolina and It seems like I remember seeing Puma before back in the day.
Continue to rest in peace Puma Jones🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I really loved this. I love all your vids but Puma is truly such a legend. Her death was so tragic and a huge loss to the entire music community.
I think Puma was an Empress and was the heartbeat of Black Uhru. Blessed love Sandra Puma Jones, job well done Empress, travel well. RAS I love this. ❤️💛💚🖤
Yes she really was the heartbeat 💓 Thanks for watching ✌️ I'm glad you liked it
Puma was the Empress!!! Obsessed with her style, voice, dance and beauty
Thank you so much for the detailed look at this amazing performer.
I found Brutal in my local recordshop in 1989 or 1990. That was my first introduction to Black Uhuru. Still love that album. I can never just play one song, it has to be the whole album 😀
Yes I 😃
That is my favorite album, also.
I know there were various line ups but with Michael Rose and Puma Jones, they made Black Uhuru tick. SIEP, Sista Puma. ❤🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Yes I ✌️ They weren't the same after she left. The group didn't fold after Michael Rose left but sort of faded after she died
Not going to lie. This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for this.
Impresiona Bastante Esta Leyenda ✍️
Es Una Historia
Real Y Emocionante...
Gracias ❤️
She's absolutely a Legend also a queen of reggae music 🎵🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵
One talented beautiful blk woman I love her voice ✊🏾
Very good!! Surprising! Women in Reggae really bring it. What amazing songs, yes prad vocals would have been great. Did they simply not sell as many records as the Stones or the Police. Some groups, you think the labels could recognize greatness and nurture them. 36 is so young 😢. Never Forget!!
i was lucky to see puma on stage in Brighton and until this day she has still remained the best female stage performing artist in reggae ive seen live
Thanks for the heart RESPECT
Puma... YES!!!! Love har still!!!
Yes I ✌️
Awesome representation of our dear departed SeeStar Puma long may She Rise in Powah, gone but never forgotten, see yer on the other side some sweet day..
Awesome. Cheers for the bio.
Always been a fan since way back...never knew her story though, just her distinctive vox. Just seen Black Uhuru are playing London Jazz Cafe in July so was prompted to look up where they were at these days...and found your clip.
Legendary.
Flawless beauty.
I miss her so much? My Graduate School Bestie. Rest In Peace.❤❤
Wow! thank you for this wonderful lesson on one of my favorite groups.
Thanks for sharing 🙏. May her soul RIP
Puma.... Unrivaled! 🔥👊🏿🖤
DAMN...it was only some yrs ago I actually heard she passed. I still feel the pain listening to Uhuru songs.
I had a huge crush on her as a kid. It really hit me when she passed
👏👏
Puma was a big crush for me when I was in early teens.
She looked free.
I agree she looked so free and beautiful
Know so little about Puma the person away from the band. Never knew she was married with children. Only know it is time to listen to sponji reggae. Thanks for shining a light on this sweet voiced sistren
Thank you for sharing this story. Beautifully and respectfully told.
Glad you enjoyed it! She was awesome

Nuff RESPECT to SistaR Puma Jones.
Sly & Robbie parted ways with Tosh in 1981 by then S&R have already recorded 3 albums with Black Uhuru (Showcase (79), Sinsemilla (80), & Red (81)).
Please, do something about Overnight Players.
Puma simply the best
Peace to the Queen of Uhuru!

Just like marley and all the other artists. and my dad the.devil and his wofkers killed them and blamed it on cancer jah is watching everything pay day is coming ❤..
I didn't like this, I loved it! Apprecialove, Reggae Appreciation Society! Jah love, i n i. Continue to Rest Easy, Puma. Prayers always to your family. 36. Please tell us more about her! I investigated relocating to Kingston. I wished to be safe and near the studios. Ended up building a soundproof studio in LA and bringing the artists / musicians to me. I live on St. John, VI. Where are you based? Tell us about you and how you got into this!!! I love you. 🙏👏❤💛🖤💚🎤🎶👑🇯🇲🇻🇮🇺🇲🌎
Love you too mi lioness ❤️💛💚Thanks I'm glad you liked it. Puma was incredible, a truly wonderful lady. Wow, you're a producer! That's awesome. I've been a huge fan of the music for as long as I can remember. I'm based in Nigeria and come from a long line of music connoisseurs. I got into reggae at six years old when two of my coolest uncles who had lived in the UK for ages came back with LOTS of reggae records from the 60s - 70s. I was always at their homes enjoying the best of the golden age of reggae and sometimes wrecked their record players in the process 😅 Reggae was and still is like the soundtrack of my childhood and life. I also loved history a lot so I decided to use this channel to share my passion with everyone. Thanks for staying tuned and supporting what I love so much. There's a lot more to come ✌️ Jah bless
@@ReggaeAppreciationSociety blessed love! Thank you for sharing your own personal journey. I have been enjoying quite a few Nigerian Reggae artists, lately! 🙏❤💛🖤💚🎶🇯🇲🌎
If it wasn't for her,I would not have listened to Black Uhuru.
I beg to differ on the best trio... Black Uhuru is fundamentally Don Carlos, Michael Rose and Puma Jones... EVERYONE else comes after that... you need to have lived it to know
Maby god/jah summon some people earlier because he want them closer to him
So she was of Jamaican heritage. She really looks it 😅 Sad she died young
Is Olufunke a nigerian too ? Like Michael Rose ?
Sort of. Her real name is Janet Reid. She was Jamaican but traced her DNA to the Yoruba tribe and adopted the middle name Olufunke
@@ReggaeAppreciationSociety thank you so much. We learn a lot on our beloved Reggae singers on this chanel. We do appreciate 🙏🙏🙏
OH! MY GOD. SHE DIED?.
have you done pablo gadd
I think so. Take a look at the videos on the channel page I believe it was covered not too long ago
