LineUp

Burning Spear, born Winston Rodney in St. Ann's Bay, Jamaica, is a revered roots reggae artist known for illuminating Rastafarianism through his emotive, spiritual music. Achievements span collaborations with Bob Marley, hits like "Marcus Garvey," Grammy nominations, and a win for "Calling Rastafari." His influential albums and powerful live shows have solidified his legacy in reggae history.
The Originals, led by Detroit native Freddie Gorman, are known for hits like "Baby I'm for Real." They collaborated with Marvin Gaye, topping R&B charts. Initially a postal worker, Gorman contributed to "Please Mr. Postman." Despite sporadic successes, their influence on Motown as songwriters and backing vocalists remains significant. "Down to Love Town" became a disco classic. Their legacy includes collaborations with Stevie Wonder and David Ruffin. After years of touring, the group's recording lapsed by the mid-'80s. Gorman passed away in 2006, and C.P. Spencer in 2004.
