    Those who are reggae fanatic like me, will remember the late Denis Wilson, the Radio 🔘 3 Reggae presenter in the 90s in Zimbabwe .This song was his introduction to the session ❤. That is when my love reggae began.🎉

      Pray for him to give his heart to the Lord Jesus Christ for he has given most of his life to entertainment. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his one soul ?

    This tune was MASSIVE, not unlike his beautiful personality.
    He treated me so well and I had danced/sang to many of his songs as a young lass. Very happy memories from (me) an aspiring singer who never got anywhere.
    Thanks, Freddie. These were great days for reggae.
