The Kingston Lions

Description

"The Kingston Lions Record is a vibrant tribute to the golden age of Jamaican reggae, bringing together a supergroup of studio legends, nicknamed the Jamaican Buena Vista Social Club. Produced by Ralph Sall and led by iconic guitarist Mikey Chung, the album brings together renowned musicians who have collaborated with major figures like Sly & Robbie, Lee Scratch Perry or Burning Spear. Recorded at Anchor Studios in Kingston, this album emotionally revisits classics from the 1960s and 1970s - Israelites, Book of Rules, Rivers of Babylon - while capturing the collective spirit and human richness of these reggae veterans.This project is also charged with emotion, marking the final collaboration of Mikey Chung, Karell Wisdom and Sticky Thompson. The Kingston Lions thus presents itself as a warm tribute and an emotional farewell to little-known but essential pillars of Jamaican musical history."
