Baking to U-Roy

Becky was making some blueberry muffins today and I went put on the latest album from U-Roy who has been one of our favorite reggae musicians since the mid 1970's. U-Roy died earlier this year at the age of 78 and was actively recording right up until the time of his passing.

I found out about this last album during my usual looking at recent releases in All Music and some other music sites I regularly check on Fridays. Since I retired and no longer add albums to my collection I now look up albums in Spotify that looked interesting or essential on All Music, etc which then become My Albums in my Spotify profile. I recently marked this U-Roy album that way and today was the first time listening to it. We both loved it.

The album Solid Gold is a collection of classic reggae songs done by U-Roy and on most of the tracks he has someone singing with him such as Ziggy Marley on Trenchtown Rock. Of course U-Roy is doing the toasting.

Now the house if filling up with the aroma of freshly baked blueberry muffins. Nice.
