 don carlos
Like Rose and Reid, Carlos hails from the tough Waterhouse district of Kingston and punctuates his singing with scat-like phrases such as "hey whooaaa" and "no ohhhh" as do Rose and Reid albeit with a more laid back approach than that of his younger successors/predecessors in Uhuru.
Carlos followed with "Ababba John I" (over the Real Rock riddim) and "Lazer Beam" (on the Weatherman Skank riddim), both of which were released on the Pass Me the Lazer Beam LP (Enterprize Records, circa 1982).
While Carlos could have chosen quality cuts from his own days with Uhuru such as "Heathen," "Take Heed," "Statement" or "Genocide," that he chose Uhuru songs only from the Michael Rose era is indicative that Rose's material remains the quintessential work of the band.
