It was great meeting so many Reggae Ambassadors in San Francisco, Santa Cruz and Chico ? especially legendary singers Edi Fitzroy and Ras Midas. Big respect to The Stand Out Selector for producing and supporting these kinds of works and to the band, Jeff Trump, Karney, Mike D, and Bill Ortiz and Martey who guested at Red Devil. In all aspects much of the joint works I have done with Stand Out over the last few years would not have happened without Reggae Ambassadors Worldwide which has provided a vital link for people working on different sides of the planet. Many thanks to the DJ?s on radio, especially Tony Moses @ KPOO, Spliff Skanking @KPFA, Brixton Hitman @ KUSF, Sister Shoshana and KosmicKev@KZFR; and SOS for the TowerPod webcast with Karney. What Kind of World Are We Living In produced by Tony Mutley Matthew from the new CD The Storyman has risen to number 8 in the www.soundclick.com reggae charts. Thanks for the support?
