I'm so happy that this interview happened. I wanted to do this with him a decade ago but wanted more of a historian asking the questions. Sadly for us, he flew home to Zion two nights ago. I played music for him and his kids, and use to hang out with him. He was my friend. I was able to get the Wailers story from him, so it was nice to hear it again. I was fortunate enough to do two songs on his album. Folk Song and Build Dem Up. Very humble man. I'm already missing him. Rest peacefully Garth. Fly home
Only 45 minutes for a legend like this
Uncle Garth Dennis… LEGENDARY!!! After being bombarded with all the FIX-TORIES, it’s refreshing to hear the REAL HISTORY!!! Yes Indeed, FOUNDATION Speaks!!!
I know Garth Dennis in Waterhouse about 1968 ,they useto called him Garthy. I know him playing cricket 🏏 and I guessed football ⚽️, but his younger brother named Dango Dee,otherwise his right name Trevor Dennis. When I know Garthy in the 1960s I never hear 👂 him singing at all, more than playing football ⚽️ and cricket 🏏. I lived in Waterhouse long before the group was formed named Black Uhuru, my cousins them know him better than me. Becaused my cousins them named Dennis like him, I heard 👂 that he and. My cousins them is some form of family 👪, because their father 👨 and Garthy father is some kind of family .Garthy brother is the best footballer coming out of Waterhouse in those days, the team was called great west back in the 1960s also 70s. It is really good to see Garthy as people useto called him, because I haven't seeing him in decades.
Exactly what duckie simpson said but he’s the one who came up with the name uhuru,, it’s a swahili name meaning freedom
@@djZezeman Let me asked you a question ❓ and I want you to answer me very truthfully, I you ever lived in Waterhouse or. How long you know Dukie , because the name is very contrary. Because I heard that is a man give the group name,my cousin would better than me. Because he was born and grew up in Waterhouse, where he the group useto hang out. I know when they useto called Dukie Mafia, because he wears the dark glasses dag and night. So nobody could see his face and that man, always in a full pair of jeans.Any guy who said that they are from Waterhouse,I have few questions to ask them if they are old enough. Where the whitehouse was located in Waterhouse, and if they know Donald or ,Mr Lowe, Cracker John, Stanley Barber 💈.Harnie,if they don't know those people. I lived there more than 24 years before I migrated from Jamaica,ok
@@blairboyd5617 I fully agree with what you said,, I know you know them better, neither I’m not a Jamaican , I’m from Africa but i just heard duckie simpson interview and he explained just exactly as you said that Garth was a sports man , but at the same time he said that he’s the one who came up with the name uhuru before he left and joined wailing souls
@@djZezeman I am going to tell you about some of the people them, that is trying to take over Jamaican arguments. I wrote a comment about certain singer, because this guy from Africa was talking a lot of trash 🗑️. I told him that I was born and grew in Jamaica for 40 years before I migrated, and the singer who he is talking about. I know him from a young boy before he started to sing and, I am 16 years old than him. So listen to what am telling you that most of the guy some them, are do over songs . I told the guy to listened to what am telling him,my step father had a sound system and I useto operated it. So once I heard the song I can tell him who is the original singer,of the songs.So back in the days before people know about copyright, one song all 20 ,30,40 doing the same song.So there is a lot of things outside people does not know the history,of the Jamaican music fraternity.It is a very long story,back in the 1970s and 80s . Most of the DJs never useto record their songs, they do on the sound system and. Guys useto go there with a tape recorder and record the dance,then they go home and studied the song . Then they run to the studio to recorded it and say, that they wrote the song. They are lying big time,I have a lot of pre leases songs right now on cassette tapes decks. From early 1970s I can tell who was the very first DJ in Jamaica,most of the original singers in Jamaica. Nobody hardly talked about them, because they does not know the history at all. The original music of Jamaica is mento, for hundreds of years. Ska rockstead and reggae just came in the 1960s, so don't listened to some of them, because they will lead you a stray,ok
@@blairboyd5617 it’s okay i get you 🙏🏿👊🏿
And if i may ask, what the difference between calypso, mento , ska rocksteady and reggae? How can someone differentiate between them?
Wailing Souls Album... Inchpinchers.... classic
Wailing Souls.... classic tune.... Very Well
Legend !!!
RIP Mr. Dennis. Trod on Warrior and condolences to his family
Rest In Power To The Original Garth Dennis!! 💚💛❤️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Was in the studio when the strong studio when the strong album was being recorded at the sly and Robbie studio, mixing lab. Songs like time material n space
Rudolph "Garth" Dennis. I know the brother from the Black Uhuru album title "Black Sounds of Freedom" including Wailing Souls albums from Wild Suspense to Stranded. I'm very happy to see the brother. It's awesome to see these brothers because here in Azania (South Africa)🇿🇦 we only knew them through reggae music and Rastafari Livity. Looking forward to listen and watch these reggae legends. ❤💛💚
Wailing Souls classic studio one tune Row Fisherman Row....
LOVE that tune. They re-recorded jt for the Tension album in the 90s.
Honorary!!!
Grammy Winner and nominee continuously. I remember when their song was showcased by Bill Cosby on the Cosby Show!
I am also happy he highlighted the Reggae Godfather “Joe Higgs”, not many are aware of the magnitude of a role he had on the foundation of our early reggae singers!
Icon....he worked with all the great voices!!! I read that mr Joe higgs taught bob marley the stage and to fill gaps in the music. Real foundation need to hear more. On the originals lord comic and count machuki...
Count Machuki I believe is part of my family according to my late father.
Earthstrong blessings today, December 2, 2021 Brother King Garth Dennis! Love love love 🙏🏼👑❤💛🖤🎤🎸🎶🇯🇲🇺🇸🌍
NOW WE TALKING MUSIC 🎶🎵🎵🎵🎼🎼🎧🎧🎤🎤🎺🎻😎
Would have liked to hear some stories about Delroy Wilson & his brother Trevor Batman Wilson *Johnny Too Bad".
YOU WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT-RAS CARDO-REGGAE CREATOR AND HIS TRENC TOWN CREW FOR ALL THAT HISTORY. DELROY GREW UP WITH ALL OF THEM, BUT HE WAS ON 2ND STREET AT THE TIME. VERY CLOSE WAS ALL OF THEM IN TRENCH TOWN.
This brethren has been doing it for decades. But it seem like there is a lot missing from this interview. He keep going back to Trench Town and Joe Higgs. Muscle you have done well to bring out some strong points. But was hoping to hear the singer speak on the cause of the break up between the 2 groups. I think he didn't want to hurt anyone feelings. It's sad to hear most of these singers in the music fraternity who didn't know a thing about the business part of things, that's very sad because that is where their pension is. Overall you did your best Sir muscle..big up yourself.
You're a straighter shooter and I always respect your pov family. Big up 👊🏾
I grew up in Trench Town on Greenwhich Street-Sunlight-Ten Street intersection.
Wailing Souls best period 1978-1984
A whole lot is missing from this interview. Something just wasn't there! The brethren responses was too close-ended. Also he didn't mention Mykal Rose.... which is the REAL authentic sound of Black Uhuru! Regardless of the politics, the most potent Black Uhuru sound is Mykal Rose tenure with Sly and Robbie. Mykal Rose IS the Black Uhuru IDENTIFY! ....the sweetest authentic potent reggae sound out of Jamaica was when Mykal Rose was with Black Uhuru.
Wailing Soul was also a very potent sound as well. I love Wailing Soul!
Myself Belle I think Don Carlos was before Mykal Rose joined the group. The original Black Uhuru
@@sheldongayle6634 I know. But the Black Uhuru that the World KNOWS was when Mykal Rose, Puma, Dukie, and Sly and Robbie was there. Mykal Rose gives Black Uhuru it's IDENTITY! All the big hits of the group is when Rose was lead singer. The closest replacement to Mykal Rose was Junior Reid.. and as far as I know, the only hit song with Junior Reid was "fit". When I said Mykal Rose IS Black Uhuru, am not talking about the politics of the name and ownership. I am talking about the group's IDENTITY...the signature sound of Mykal Rose, and the others I mentioned above.
@@mykalbelle8397 I agree with you 100% but the reason why I responded to your comment was the fact that he probably would not mention Mykal Rose because he wasn't a part of the group with Rose but with Don Carlos. I might be wrong still, kinda feeling lazy to look it up.
Anyway Mykal Rose defined their sound and identity backed by Sly & Robbie, killer tunes and great period for reggae.
@@sheldongayle6634 much Raspect for this response. Your observations are good. My introduction to Black Uhuru was during the era of Mykal Rose (and the others mentioned above). Those were the GOLDEN years of the group.
You are 100% right, agree with you
Wailing Souls did TV appearances in Uk....mid 1980s
Deep humility, humble Lion, God bless you Brother
MY MUCH BELOVED BRETHREN GARTHY. YOU TOLD THEM ABOUT US FROM TRENCH TOWN . REST IN ZION WITH JAH LOVE FROM CARDO(RAS CARDO) AND CREW. YOU TOLD THEM ABOUT US-JUNIOR BRAITHWAITE, RICARDO(CARDO)SCOTT, AND YOURSELF AS ORIGINAL WAILERS.
Muscle !! 45 mins for a legend 🙌is way to short you need part 2 and 3 with these artists ! Gr8t show tho !
The Ras is a living legend, where is Ras Dennis now, London? Was hoping to get a background on how or who got Don Carlos from stop being the postman in Kingston 11 to being part of Uhuru or going into music fulltime.... Thanks Ras Dennis for the short insight on the vocal coach Joe Higgs: don't hear his name being mentioned much, but without him there is no Bob basically
YES! GARTIE AND US WERE LIVING IN THE SAME PLACE AS NEIGHBORS AND BRETHRENS.
Nice one , respect to Garth Dennis big time Rastaman who held it for years. Rastafari
Real Rock is my favorite wailing soul son along side firecoalman.. UHURU, general penitentiary
Mr interviewer, he didn't said that he recorded for Dynamic ..he recorded the song at Dynamic studios...Major difference..
GARTIE SPOKE MUCH TRUTH ABOUT US TO THIS BRETHREN. 2LINE MUSIC NEEDS TO GET THE REST FROM RAS CARDO AND TRENCH TOWN CREW. SADLY MISSED BY ALL OF US. THERE IS SO MUCH HISTORY TO BE TOLD. RAS CARDO AND CREW HAS THE DETAILED LIFE HISTORY OF ALL OF US FROM THOSE TRENCH TOWN DAYS.
Peter tosh is the wailers he was the one that would play the guitar 🎸in the group
Was very much looking forward to this particular interview. For I personally this interview never Catch a Fire; Muscle Head I love the Respect the Works . This is I humble opinion . I think there are times when You Muscle Head have to push and gently coerce the Artists to engage more . I understand that its not every Artist whom is going to naturally open up .I feel that you give to much reverence to Artists. A just Singers n Players of Instruments at the end of the day .
I agree with you 100%! I prepared enough questions to take us to about 2 hours or so but I cut the conversation short. People generally needs sometime to warm up when starting an interview and I get that but I'll never coerce anyone to engage when they know what we're here to do. I Rate this comment 👊🏾🦁
.....It’s like Chalk n Cheese ...,Watched The Ritchie Stephens interview..- Al Campbell interview....🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️..... What a joy .. You can the passion, Joy you feel as though your transported back to a time .......
I’d love to have seen interviews with Prince Lincoln / Sugar Minott .......
....Maybe Muscle you can get Freddie McGregor .....? Keep up the Works ....
I guess it’s ultimately up to the Artist to Give of themselves and in turn The Viewer
Maximum respect for the support. We're still in the beginning stages of building, stay for the ride because we have a lot further to go ✊🏾
@@EntertainmentReportPodcast muscle I interview artists myself I've stated in a earlier post that these veteran's need a pt1 ,2 and 3 because the history is so extensive love your works muscle by bringing these artists to the forefront because these artists aint easy to just interview like so, truss mi ,mi know , but !!!! Its just like reasoning with your bredda who's either involved or just love the history of the music I think u could of got more outta him but your shows are excellent 👌each artists is truly different! Gr8t works muscle keep going king
I can't believe this brethren never been to Africa. Being with Black Uhuru, and Wailing Soul😳..wow!
Why you just want fi CRITICIZE? Hol’ yuh horses man!!! Bump di ting and know seh man ah BIG MAN… nuff tings outa circulation ya now.. seen YUNG BLOOD? 🩸
@@marciahiggs8335 Where is the criticism? Obviously you is very ill informed about Jamaican music, and perhaps much too young to overstand the opinions I expressed above. Much love!
@@mykalbelle8397 Get your grammar correct - then speak to me. Go back… re-read your posts… and in the process, LISTEN TO YOURSELF. Sometimes it’s not all about NAME- DROPPING but about RECEIVING any TRUTH being relayed. I’m sick of some of you reggae geniuses who simply got on board. GET OVER IT.
@@marciahiggs8335 Obviously, you have some sinister agenda. And from your name, you are not doing any good to the reputation of the things/person you are trying to defend. Anyways, much blessings to you.
@@mykalbelle8397 I agree. She's trippin!
Would have loved to hear about the Tuff Gong recordings, Back biter, harbour shark, wicked ago dread now. LEGENDS. 🔥🔥🔥 💯💯💯
Bro if you want the real in depth story of the Wailing soul I can get you one. From one of the original members he is my dad
Big up Garthy love and respect
Link me on Whatsapp: 416.264.3999 👊🏾
Who?!?!!?
Gone to Zion
No. Junior Bratwait never originated the name Wailer. Junior Bratwait came after. I met Bob after Simmer Down. I use to sit under the coolie plum tree behind the fire brigade station that was facing maypem cemetery on Spanish town road. The back of the fire station was facing Trench Town.
When the Wailer did Simmer Down Uru was nowhere in the mix.
Hey muscle big interview foundation artis respect
This interview was a very boring interview he only gave one answer's Ducky was much more entertaining than him.
I´m sorry, but garth dennis can`t remember nothing! He doesn`t remember how many albums recorded, how long he stayed with wailing souls, which countries he played, which albums got nominaterd...is he suffering from amnesia???
I´m sorry, but Duckie is older than him and has a extraordinary memory!!!
Garth is older than Dickie by one year.
