SLY & ROBBIE'S FRIENDS


It was so cold outside this morning that my dog and cat looked at me like I was some kind of freak for making them go out there. 

"Look," I told them, "if you'd learned how to use the toilet, you wouldn't be in this situation".

Neither of them saw the humor in it.

After they came back inside, my 2 beasties snuggled up next to each other.  The wind was howling outside and when you realized the air temperature was just 4 degrees above zero, that meant the wind chill was...well...It ain't human, I tell ya!

So this morning, I've picked some tropical tunes, if only to help fool us into thinking that winter won't last forever.  These four clips all came from a Showcase special that was taped in Jamaica in 1987.  It featured lots of great performances, but the really cool thing was the line-up of the house band that night:

Sly Dunbar & Robbie Shakespeare
Coati Mundi
Tyrone Downey
Stephen "Cat" Coore
Robbie Lynn
Dean Frazier
