Description
Arguably the most gifted Jamaican performer of his generation, Ken Boothe is today widely regarded as a living legend, having recorded innumerable ska, rock steady and reggae classics over a period spanning some 60 years.After making his recording debut in 1962, Ken enjoyed a hugely successful career in Jamaica before achieving international stardom in 1974 with his charttopping interpretation of ‘Everything I Own’ and the top 10 followup, ‘Crying Over You’.Both of these hugely popular tracks feature on this collection, which forms part of Trojan Record’ s new ‘Essential Artist’ series, which showcases the bestloved recordings of some of Jamaica’ s greatest musical talents.
