    Un très grand groupe de reggae : trois membres fondateurs ont quitté ce monde : Bunny Ruggs deuxième à partir de la gauche, lead vocal de Third World Band. Il y a aussi le troisième à partir de la gauche Ibo, le claviste super doué qui nous a quitté en 2023 et enfin l'homme à la chemise rouge qui jouait de la percussion. Son nom m'échappe. Third world continue avec d'autres personnes dont trois sont sur cette pochette.

    In Loving Memories Of William Alexander Anthony Clarke
    February 6, 1948 ~ "Bunny Rugs" ~ February 2, 2014
    ~Rest In Internal Peace~
    "...Another Star Has Been Plucked From The World
    A Star Has Been Taken Home To Heaven
    The World Is So Sad And Sorrowful
    It Happened On February 2nd 2014
    A Day We Will Always Remember!
    Never Again To See Him Sing On Stage As His Fans Dances
    Never Again To See Bunny Rugs Smile Light Up The Stage
    To The Roaring Sound Of His Fans Screaming
    "We Love You Bunny Rugs!"
    A Brother Has Been Taken Home
    But In Our Hearts His Music Will Always Stay
    Bunny Rugs Will Now Sing Among The Clouds
    And In The Heavens And In Your Memories You
    Will Still Hear Him Singing Loud And Proud!..."

    This is one of my favorite songs from Third World. I love it. Takes me back to early 80's DC listening to WHUR caribbean beat on Sundays. The playlist was full of Third World, Black Uhuru, Bob Marley, and the Funkiest Caribbean/Reggae sounds around. Didn't know Stevie wrote it, (I HEAR IT KNOW)!

      June 2nd, 2020. Covid-19 is still raging. Celebrities, politicians, the rich, even a tiger in a zoo all have ready access to testing for this virus, yet tests are not readily available for the masses. "Poor people are dying". Following the murder of George Floyd at the hands (knee of Minneapolis police), US cities are aflame and the president orders a peaceful protest to be tear gassed so that he can walk across the street for a photo op. "Easy squeeze makes no riot". 🙏🏼

      @AshFawkes 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It resonates with me today thinking about the demonic Zionists in Israel pretending to be Jah people and killing innocent children. And how they follow the Talmud instead of the Bible. They themselves admit they aren't Hebrew. It's all in Revelation that false Jews will occupy Israel. Happening now.

      Hmmmm, phony God, is it? Explain. Or do you think this is some kind of profound wisdom that you devised all on your by your little old self. I (being a Christian beleiver,) have heard that kind of hair up your ass anti religion time and time again. You seem to be (just by your mere presence here,) to be one of those kind of atheists who just go out of your way to make people (whom you don't even know, and most likley would ever capitaize on, or from,) know that "YOU," hate the very mention of God, or religion in any form. Now, again, explain yourself. Show me just how much "YOU," are in control of the existence of everything known and unknown to "MANKIND." Surely you must know of such things, otherwise you wouldn't (or should I say "any sane person wouldn't,) take assume such a hostile position towrds something that you can't even explain awya, even with your arrogant self aggrandizing (continually correcting itself,) science(s.)
