15, still at school, late 1977, I got the Kaya album months before it was released in March 78. One of our the supply teachers had a good friend that worked at EMI; she knew I loved reggae music and put it on cassette for me. Every single track takes me back, especially Sun is Shining and Crisis! A Master Class band, never to be repeated. Peace & love!
