Fade Away


It's been ages since I posted anything from the island of Jamaica so here's some quality roots reggae from Mr Junior Byles in 1975 and a righteous piece of blood and fire.

'He who seeks of only vanity and no love for humanity, shall fade away. He who checks only for wealth and not for his physical health, shall fade away. The man who worships silver and gold, shall surely, surely, surely lose his soul'.

Fade Away

A fantastic song. In your postet original version as well as the cover by the New Age Steppers

Excellent song. It's so good I might even post it ten days ago.

Must have missed that George. Its difficult to keep track of these things sometimes.

Just a fit of pique Adam. It's a fine song. And when I've so much time on my hands it's easy to read so many blogs. I include yours in that statement!
