Alpha Boy School mit No Excuse ! Geht Ab das Lied!. + Informações

The Alpha Boys School in Kingston has produced some of the finest musicians to come out of Jamiaca. Founded in the 1880s by Sisters of Mercy nuns, it has been the nursery for the luminaries of Jamaican jazz, ska and reggae. Four of the original Skatalies went there, Tommy McCook, Lester Sterling, Johnny Moore and Don Drummond as well as countless other great singers and players. The list reads like a Who's Who of reggae: Johhny Osbourne, Desmond Dekker, Yellowman, Leroy Smart, Rico Rodriguez, Leroy 'Horsemouth' Wallace, Eddie 'TanTan' Thornton, Owen Gray, Bobby Ellis, Tony Gregory, Floyd Lloyd Seivrieght, 'Deadly' Headley Bennett, JoJo Bennett, Winston 'Mr Fix It' Francis, Karl Bryan and Cedric 'Im' Brooks all attended Alpha. In the jazz world, Joe Harriott, Bertie King, Wilton and Harold Gaynair, and Dizzy Reece. Also, the first ever black man to conduct the London Symphony Orchestra, Dr. Leslie Thompson, back in the 1940s was an Alpharian. Alpha boys were generally either orphans, wayward children, or from very poor backgrounds... although Alpharians are keen to point out that not all boys who went there were problem kids, some just went because it was a great school! Mentored by their beloved Sister Ignatius who ran the music department for 64 years until her death in 2003, she is the undisputed Godmother of reggae and ska. In 2007, the Alpha Old Boys Association (UK) put on a concert in honour of her life, a gathering together of the tribe, many of whom had not seen .... + Informações

Sehr gut gelungenes UB40-Cover von dem Album "Perfect Situation" (VÖ:01.08.2008) Ich wollte das Lied nicht von dem Lied, das zuvor läuft ("Woyzeck"), trennen, da sonst der gute Übergang verloren gegangen wäre ;). I am the one in ten A number on a list I am the one in ten Even though I don`t exist Nobody Knows me But I`m always there A statistical reminder Of a world that doesn`t care My arms enfold the dole queue Malnutrition dulls my hair My eyes are black and lifeless With an underprivileged stare I`m the beggar on the corner Will no-one spare a dime? I`m the child that never learns to read `Cause no-one spared the time I am the one in ten A number on a list I am the one in ten Even though I don`t exist Nobody Knows me But I`m always there A statistical reminder Of a world that doesn`t care I`m the murderer and the victim I'm The licence with the gun I`ma sad and bruised old lady In an ally in a slum I`ma middle aged businessman With chronic heart disease I`m another teenaged suicide In a street that has no trees I am the one in ten A number on a list I am the one in ten Even though I don`t exist Nobody Knows me But I`m always there A statistical reminder Of a world that doesn`t care I`ma starving third world mother A refugee without a home I`ma house wife hooked on Valium I`ma Pensioner alone I`ma cancer ridden spectre Discovering the earth I`m another hungry baby I`m an accident of birth. I am the one in ten A number on a list I am the one in ten Even though I don`t .... + Informações

2005 -Believe in yourself- Video zur Platte Alpha Boy School. + Informações

Edited version of documentary on Jamaican music with particular reference to the Alpha Boys School and its invaluable contribution to the music that has resonated from the island over the last 50 years. The impact of musicians such as Don Drummond and "Dizzy" Moore of The Skatalites, along with Rico Rodriguez and countless others that to this day leave behind a life of poverty is a true inspiration. Brief but unmissable interviews with Batholomew "Scully" and Leroy "Horsemouth" Wallace make up for the limited musical content. I have cut 5 minutes of less relevant chat to fit YouTube time restrictions.. + Informações
