SLY & ROBBIE recruited the American rock guitarist Daryl Thompson (†2014) whom they knew from their time with PETER TOSH. They engaged the keyboardist Franklyn "Bubbler" Waul who was however not allowed to play the reggae typical shuffle organ but to steadily thrash the offbeat onto the piano. Those two musicians who were being replaced at several shows with Keith Sterling and Mikey Chung formed the core of Black Uhuru which together with a second guitarist and a percussionist also dominated the stage in Essen. Sly's varied drum patterns, Robbie's bass drive, the straight offbeat and Thompson's warped guitar licks were a combination that never had been heard like this in reggae before, a hypnotic wall of sound as basis for the revolutionary Rastafarian lyrics of Michael Rose, Puma Jones and Duckie Simpson, now and then interrupted by surprising echo effects. After their performance at ROCKPALAST, Black Uhuru enjoyed worldwide success including three more albums ("Red", "Chill Out", and "Anthem"). Then, Michael Rose no longer wanted to go on - allegedly because of jealousies from Duckie Simpson - and was replaced with Junior Reid. The new outfit managed to create two more UK Top 10 hits with the songs 'Fit You Haffe Fit' and 'The Great Train Robbery' and released the albums "Brutal" and "Positive". In 1990 Puma Jones died; SLY& ROBBIE retreated. Duckie Simpson who held the rights to the name Black Uhuru carried on with the project, reactivating the founders Don Carlos and Garth Dennis and releasing Albums like "Now" and "Iron Storm" but remained far from the bands' success of the 80's. Matching the trend, dub mixes were released out of turn on top of several albums during the bands' hot phase "Uhuru In Dub", "The Dub Factor", "Brutal Dub" and "Positive Dub", also each line-up released at least one live album. However, none of them possessed the quality and the energy of this ROCKPALAST performance in 1981

Excellent quality for an excellent price tag
Color: Blue, Size: Medium
The suit arrived in 2 days after ordering; it arrived in excellent condition, was wrapped in clear plastic, however it was only in one package and should have been wrapped in a second layer in case of accidentally opening during the shipping process. The suit was folded very neatly, I'll keep it as is as it's a gift for a friend of mine who is a musician and he will use it for performance on stage. The size was M and correct. Unfortunately, it has arrived in the wrong color, I ordered blue, and purple has been delivered. I hope, he likes it anyway. I'll keep it as it is too inconvenient for me to exchange it and ship it back to the sender.

Beautiful suit
Color: Purple, Size: Small
Suit is better than I expected. Bought this for my son for prom. The sequins POP. I am highly satisfied with this purchase. My son is 5'6 about 130 lbs and I ordered a size XS and it fit perfect. The only complaint I have is there is a hole for a button but no button is attached to the suit. Besides that, GET IT.

Great suit
Color: Purple, Size: X-Small
Fit my husband perfectly for our friends wedding and it was comfortable. It doesn't get wrinkled fast if at all. The quality was not bad for the price.
