What a great performance shot of the recently departed Desmond Dekker. This is an early ska record (1967) on Beverley’s Records out of Kingston, Jamaica. This was produced by Leslie Kong and includes Dekker’s first hit “007” (but surprisingly not the song “Action” – one of my favorites).

Woke up this morning same thing for breakfast….
Desmond Dekker’s The Israelites has been “translated” to make every word different to what he actually sings.A classic in misheard lyrics
Its always disappointing when artists like this die and we’re left with useless plonkers like Pete Doherty
