Although now a fulltime solo artist and no longer an active Chineke member, it was KennehMasons pioneering and original arrangements of Marleys No Woman, No Cry and Redemption Song that initially captured the attention and appreciation of Tuff Gong and the Bob Marley estate. So the Chineke musical journey, via Abbey Road Studios, had begun.
