  • Let's give Junior Reid his due, and also Duckie for incorporating Junior's songs into Black Uhuru's repertoire and giving this unique reggae group a sound and a stance that was never reliant on one singer.
    Special thanks and appreciation to Santa Davis too, who really drives this performance!
    "Black Uhuru Alive" was a memorable concert held at the (original) Ritz in New York City, on June, 11 1986. Portions of the video were shot in the months that followed, in Jamaica.
    Black Uhuru, in this incarnation, consisted of founder Duckie Simpson, singer Junior Reid and the incomparable Puma Jones. The band on this particular tour, consisted of Santa Davis on drums, Earl (Chinna) Smith on guitar, Chris Meredith on bass, Anthony (Asher) Brissett on keyboards and Sky Juice on percussion.
    Special thanks to the crew; cameramen: Jefferson Miller, Jabari and Bill Megalos, engineer: Dan Epstein, camera assistants: Stuart Sporn and Orville Bennett, sound engineer Steve Remote, lighting designer Edgar Gordon, and of course, visionary director, Stafford Ashani, my partner in Reggae Strong for many years. Rest in peace Stafford. Your work lives on.
