      Gregory was truly one of the greats, out of my record collection he holds one of the biggest parts, I have probably a couple of hundred Gregory singles. By the time of this performance his voice was slightly on the decline. I saw Gregory live numerous times, first time I think was around 1978 but for me the second time I saw him which would have been around 1981-82 is still one of the best musical performances I’ve ever seen - saw him with the full Roots Radics band (every member was present) a truly great night.

      I can't agree more with you, Sir! I can still remember our English teacher bringing his radio with a cassette of GI's great song 'Night Nurse' for a listening comprehension lesson. It happened in 1986 and after the lesson I took a bus to go and purchase that cassette. I lost it two years ago and cried like a child. We miss him dearly but he is in our heart. When I feel low I go to UA-cam to listen to his music. May he RIP.

    • @TheBazo71
      @TheBazo71 Рік тому

      @sherforlife1 you make a point I have always paid attention to about Gregory Isaacs - consistency of his works no matter where he does it from.
      By contrast (which is by no means a comparison), notice how Peter Tosh almost makes it a point to sing differently in each live performance from either the last live performance or studio recording of the same song.
      There are very few Peter Tosh live recordings which are identical to studio recordings - I take it it was his choice and signature.
      Big up to these talented musicians we have been privileged to listen to.
      Peace, Love and Blessings from Zambia

    So many emotions watching this. Watching and listening to Gregory in the later years, a legend! His voice just isn’t the same but you can hear that he still feels the music.
    The song itself, what is about, carries so much weight and elicits heartbreak, yet the typical reggae sound is mellow and relaxing it almost numbs the pain in the same way the final lyrics express.
    I’ve listened to so much Gregory over the last decade and really can’t get enough. So when I see new material, especially live performances, which are rare, it brings great joy.
    RIP Mr. Cool Ruller
