Johnny Dollar is one of my favorite Jamaican songs. I use to sing all over Buff Bay. You could hear it almost everywhere in the town bars and radio. A very beautiful song.. Thank you for this TEACH DEM!!!!
One of my favorite songs of Mr. Roland Burrell is "Give me your love". Bring tears to my eyes because the man sang his heart out. If the girl he was singing to did not give it to him that girl don't have a heart. 🥲
Him and Freddy were very close friends. Mr Burrell wrote the song and gave it to MrMcKay who recorded it first and became a hit. Later on Mr Burrell recorded it too. Back in the days it was common practice to exchange or borrow songs among artists friends . Today it would turn into a copyrights issue nightmare and the artists know better not to do it.
Blessings always. I really appreciate what you are doing Teach .These are the foundation artists. Their work will always stand. Blessings. Health, Health.
Real artist. I have a copy of the treasured 7". I loved this song from when I was a youth walking barefoot growing up. Was so glad when I grew up and came across the record.
The song 'Johnny Dollar' is a cover of a song titled 'A Quiet Place' by American soul singer Garnet Mimms and The Enchanters. The original peaked at number 78 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1964. Burrell cover was released in the summer of 1982.
The Original Song Of Johnny Dollar Is Called “Quiet Place” By Garnet Mimms & The Enchanters 1964. Maybe Roland Had An Experience In Life Where He Could Relate With This Song. Even So, It Would Not Have Taken Any Stripe Off Him If He Just Gave Credit Where It Is Deserved But It Does Not Look Good For Him Taking All The Credit. Teach Dem! Please Make Sure This Message Reach Him.
I was thinking the same thing. He should have even given Freddie McKay credit for Picture on the Wall and Creation Steppers for Stormy Night. Mr. Burell is a wicked singer but he should also give credit where it is due.
Teach Dem, give thanks fi this interview, I remember when I was a youth I went to a stage show at Water Fletcher Beach, the rain started to fall and I can't remember if it was Roland was on stage at the time but all I know when the singer started singing that song Stormy Night, the whole place turn upside down, I mean he had to pull up the song about 20 times. That I'll never forget as long as I live. It's such a joy sitting here watching the icon live and well.
Roland Burrell original artist a legend my late bredrin Michael Jones used to play nuff of his tunes on Diamonds sound system in the 80s very underrated singer
Yes i just finished the listening to the interview and I was definitely educated more about Johnny dollor because that's the name I used from I'm a boy, Teach dem big interview enuh respect and manners and people support the channel enuh watch a few ads if you can't watch all like me 👊🏾
The whole Johnnie Dollar LP is a classic record. I play it still. Released in Jamaica on the Masai label and inna UK on Rockers Plantation label. Every track is a winner. Great to see Mr Burrell looking fresh still
Sir. Johnny Dollar is a legend in my world, never knew this man was still alive Teach, glad to see him brother, bring back memories of my late brother some of his favorite songs to sing especially while cooking....
Roland Burrell aka Mr. Jolly Dollar himself. Good veteran singer. When him tune touch turntable whole dance start move. Peer forward. 🎼🎼🎼🎶🎵🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
When he mentoned that he attended Vere Tech; my T&f senses start tingling, yes i rembember him, he did represent Vere Tech and run at those parish championships back then, so thats who Roland Burrel 'evolved' into A singer.
Give thanks Teach Dem....I have been listening to these hits over the years and only now putting a face to the sounds. Big up yourself Mr B and stay strong 👍🏾
I used to know and sing Johnny Dollar as a child to my friends at school but is the first I see or know the singer...Those two songs were big long before hurricane Gilbert so Stormy Night must have been after hurricane Allen
The man is a bare faced liad, picture on the wall was a cover of freddie McKay, johnny dollar is also a cover (forgot the original artist) and stormy night was by the creation steppers, this man has a good imagination telling the story of how this particular song came about.
I always thought it was freddy McKay who wrote picture on the wall, and I know a bredgrin Eric back in the 80s 90s who claim he wrote stormy night , we called him Eric steppers
Big Up To The Singer , He Did not write Stormy Night - It was written by this group Creation Steppers in the 70’s - came out on a 45 on Tommy Cowans - label He Covered the Bredrens Tune - he did not write it !
My favourite dancehall song of all time from it buss until today. Great lyrics, music, harmony, dancehall Hall of Fame music. This song should have earned him millions of dollars
Yes teach on to this one here, love the elders artiste stories from the 70s there contribution to the genre, late but tomorrow i wake up and watch the rest of the video big artiste this.
Big big dance hall artist, big up yourself Johnny dalla, somet wicked tune ma fren, u help to set the trend yet some of these so call artist dnt wants to follow..
Another great legend. As a kid growing up in Jamaica 🇯🇲. I remember singing these songs. Johnny Dollar was it for us the kids. My father and his coworkers would kill us with hanging on the wall. These legend back then were great story tellers . They never sound stale.These are the artist that should be on the air. .. instead of the killing music. Thanks Teach now I can connect the artist to the music. Look forward to your program every Tuesday.
Song titled entitled ( JOHNNY DOLLAR ) is an R&B original SOUL MUSIC, and there's a studio one version of "JOHNNY DOLLARS" by WINSTON FRANCIS, produce by Clements Coxson Dodd at studio one JAMAICA, THE BLACKSTONES
Wow! I didn’t know he was still around in the flesh, what a pleasant surprise! I heard something that isn’t obviously true many years ago about this artiste. Stormy nights is still one of my top favourite reggae songs. Played it every time i played out. More life mr Burrell.
Great program you got going, try n get some more of the elders in the music, before they're gone please, like leroy smart, Horace Andy, errol dunkley, mutabaruka,
Big up Teach Dem every time it's never too late for a shower of rain 🌧 I didn't know that Pictures Hanging on the wall was written by Roland Burrell I grew up on the Freddy Mckay version it's always good to know something you didn't know respect my brothers for a great interview as usual Teach Dem
I growing up hearing this artist but I like when he says he doesn't know how to boke meaning he do not run out of money God a work love and prosperity up and running
I also wonder who's the original composer of 'Hanging On The Wall?' Is it Freddie McKay, whom many thought to be the original composer and vocalist of that song or is it Roland Burrell as being intimated in this interview? There needs to be clarification regarding this song. By the way, the Freddie McKay version is by far the more popular version.
I thought "Picture on the wall" was written by Freddie McKay. This is a very interesting discovery. That's a long time favorite of mine, but it's the Freddie McKay version I always hear playing. Much Blessings and continued success, me Bredda!
@@emiledaley3 I have my doubts as well. Freddie McKay died many years ago. I am wondering if any producer, family members, etc of Freddie available to verify.
Again! Why Is Roland Burrell Doing This? To My Knowledge,Picture On The Wall Was Done By The Late Freddie McKay. A Very Big Hit By Freddie McKay Back Then. If I Am Wrong, Could Someone Please Teach Me?
Roland burrell - Johnny dollar a big song big time in London in the dancehall and party with the next cut by yellow man- soldiers tek over which got band in Jamaica 🇯🇲 . Great artist Roland burrell . Big up teach dem crew who remember the reggae legend 🙏🏿🙏🏿
The records are there, so you can't go around the truth. We need to verify whether picture on the wall was originally done by Freddy Mckay or Roland Burrell. Roland Burrell needs to clear this one up. NOW !!!
Yes I corrected this in the comment section: Freddy McKay did pic on the wall. But Roland Burrell didn’t say he was the originator, he said he used to sing it because he liked it!!!
I agree! There needs to be a clarification on this one. What he said in the video is very CLEAR. I have been listening to this song (as a little youth growing up in 🇯🇲 ) years before I know of Roland Burrrell, and it's always Freddie McKay I know of. So Teachdem, please do a follow up to clarify who wrote that tune. Bless!
The late great Freddy McKay originally sang Picture On The Wall at Studio One in 1971, he re-recorded the song again in 1977, Roland Burrell did his version in 1992 and even on that record label above Burrell's name it says Adapted in brackets.
Jonny Dollar 💵 came from a cowboy 🤠 movie 🎥 named Jonny Dollar 💵, it is a long time song useto done in the dancehall. If I am not mistaken I guessed Jonny Clarke did it into a different version, but a lot of artists have done it in the 1970s and 80s. I am not discredited the brother, but that some have a lot of version of it. In those days in the 1960s also 70s, most of the DJS them or singers hardly recorded their songs. Becaused it was really hard to get recorded in the studios 🎙 them,so some people realized that the songs is not recorded by anyone. So they run to the studio 🎙 and recorded it,as what he said. He changed a few things in the song and, puts in his own words in different styles. But that song Johnny Dollar was a very hit in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and, around the world. Any dance 💃 you go to, you must hear 👂 them play Johnny Dollar 💵.
Seems like there's doubt about Roland being the composer of 'Stormy Night' as well. I'm seeing elsewhere where it is stated that it was written by Willie Stepper while others said that Eric Griffiths is the true composer. Willie Stepper is the vocalist and Eric Griffiths and Fred Locks did backing vocal on their version of the song. Is it that Roland is having some serious memory issue as it relates to the authorship of his three top songs?
Teach dem something not right, the artist claim he wrote Johnny dollar but if you google the song a quiet place, its the same song,so we need to know more bless
YOW TEACH DEM WEH U GO FIND DEM LEGEND YAH BRO JOHNNY DOLLAR IS A MUSICAL MASTERPIECE THAT LASTED OVER 3 DECADES AND STILL IS REFERRED AS A CLASSIC TODAY !!!!
@@TeachDem ....love dem interview ..but ..a quiet place ..aka..johnny dollar is not roland tune..it's adapted ....garnett minnus is the original singer.... Stormy night is also adapted...creation steppers .... Rasta ah lie lie rasta .....
Now mi really confused...How Roland barrel fi seh a him write johnny dollar, and picture on the wall..can someone please clear that up for me? I thought those songs were covered..
yes they are covers man a lie to the people them picture on wall freddie mckay 1971 johnny doller ska version 1967 prince buster dave barker johnny doller 1970
I almost fall out the chair, when I hear him telling the story about Johnny dollar, picture on the wall and Fred Locks tune, this man should be drug tested ! Every hour on the hour

Hello Teach Dem
Would like you to interview veteran radio personality Radcliffe Butler
Eye opener, great information/ interview as always 👌 👍
,
What a rare gem interview with Roland Burrell, Teach Dem up, up, up
Johnny Dollar is one of my favorite Jamaican songs. I use to sing all over Buff Bay. You could hear it almost everywhere in the town bars and radio. A very beautiful song.. Thank you for this TEACH DEM!!!!
He didn't write though,it was written by an American
First time Teach Dem tell a singer “just give me a few lines” because Sir Burrell will sing all of the songs, which I appreciate 👌🏿👊🏿👍🏿
One of my favorite songs of Mr. Roland Burrell is "Give me your love". Bring tears to my eyes because the man sang his heart out. If the girl he was singing to did not give it to him that girl don't have a heart. 🥲
Teach Dem I love your level of professionalism in your interview. Keep rising 👑. 💪
Wasn't picture on the wall originally done by Freddy Mckay at studio one in 1971 ?... Roland Burrell needs to set the record straight on this one.
Him and Freddy were very close friends. Mr Burrell wrote the song and gave it to MrMcKay who recorded it first and became a hit. Later on Mr Burrell recorded it too. Back in the days it was common practice to exchange or borrow songs among artists friends . Today it would turn into a copyrights issue nightmare and the artists know better not to do it.
No soun rite at all a Freddie McKay. Most a Roland songs can be trace to others
He is delusional

I saw this Big Man at a dance in Ray Town in 1989. I bought him a juice and we had a reasoning. A humble Bredren JAH BLESS 🙏 ROLAND BURREL!
Who cares what you bought him
@@marcwatson6063 😂😂😂😂
The Original Song Of Johnny Dollar Is Called “Quiet Place” By Garnet Mimms & The Enchanters 1964.
Maybe Roland Had An Experience In Life Where He Could Relate With This Song. Even So, It Would Not Have Taken Any Stripe Off Him If He Just Gave Credit Where It Is Deserved But It Does Not Look Good For Him Taking All The Credit.
