Justin Hines and the Dominoes – Jezebel
Island 1976

Justin Hines, front, cd size

This is a classic album by a group that even Bob Marley had
great admiration for. Justin Hines and the Dominoes made this
’76 album with the Black Disciples, the same group, Winston
Rodney alias Burning Spear made some records with in the same
period. Have you seen the movie ‘Rockers’? It ends with the song,
this LP opens with. What a splendid film, starring some of the
greatest reggae artists as themselves. Gregory Isaacs, Robbie
Shakespeare, Dillinger, Burning Spear and Jacob Miller among others.
I found this fantastic scene at Youtube in which we see Leroy
‘Horsemouth’ Wallace, the famous drummer with Richard ‘Dirty Harry’
Hall entering a typical disco discotheque, check out what happens.
Classic scene from a classic movie you really must have seen.
This one’s for you Gonzalez.
