I'm so glad I got to see him before he died. He was still putting on great shows well into his 70s. I took my daughter for her first gig, and now, whenever anyone asks what her first gig was, she feels like the coolest person in the room.... and she's right.
Toots and The Maytals frontman "Toots" Hibbert joins Bob, Peter, Gregory, Dennis and all the other legendary artists into the eternal Reggae Hall of Fame. He had already gained musical fame in Jamaica when Bob Marley was just breaking onto the scene and continued to bring the island's music to the world right up to the end, having released his final album just a few weeks ago. Numerous classic tracks like 'Funky Kingston', 'Pressure Drop', 'Monkey Man' and of course 'Sweet and Dandy' will insure his legacy, and his version of the oft' covered 'Louie Louie' is, I believe, far superior to all the rest. RIP Toots and thanks for the music.
The passing of toots and the passing of Stevie Ray Vaughan struck me deep well we will all Jam together again someday and we will be on the other side they'll probably be waiting for us at the gate ride on my dear brothers let's remember be kind to each other be kind to ourselves and let's do a happy dance on this side while we can happy dance now
HIS VOICE, HIS MUSIC, IS A GIFT TO ALL THAT ARE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO LISTEN TO IT. AND HE'S BEEN DOING IT FOREVER.... Bless ya toots - yes your music is sweet & dandaaaay
RIP Toots, the lord's pressure just dropped when you arrive at the gates. Thank you for your love of all, your spirit in the music. You are and always will be, what is good in the world....
I saw Toots and the Maytals and Eric Donaldson at a reggae concert in Port Antonia, Portland Parish, Jamaica in August 1971 for one Jamaican dollar. Best show and best value in my life.
What a beautiful dude! Such a great vibe. It was always joyous to see and hear him. Toots had in infectious energy and sweet vibe. I am absolutely heartbroken. Big hugs & much love to the Hibberts. LEGEND.
Greetings Mr Sweet and Dandy👑 You have made our lives so wonderful all these years both in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and in America 🇺🇸 , And the hearts of the youth dem that. Jay bless Antoinette Jackson
These Toots Unplugged sessions are such a treat. His voice, those lovely backup harmonies, and the stripped-down arrangements really showcase the strength of these classic songs. Toots reggae superstar. Timeless.
