About Me |
|
| On an island renowned for its superb vocalists and composers,John Holt still stands head and shoulders above the rest as one of Jamaica's sweetest singers and enduring song writers. Holt joined the vocal group the Paragons, his work boasts a slew of classics including "Tonight", "Stranger in Love" and "A Love I can Feel". Arguably the best work the singer recorded in the early "70s was for Bunny Lee,including the classic "Tonight". However,their biggest success was a cover of "Stick by me",deliberately arranged to take advantage of the latest dance craze.
The song stuck to the Jamaican charts for an amazing 23 weeks and became the biggest selling single of the year. As rocksteady had shifted into reggae,the singer had no trouble in transforming his songwriting toward the new genre. The singer had performed at Reggae Sunsplash to much acclaim and had seen chart success with such fares as "If I were a carpenter" and covers of the Isley brothers' "This Old Heart of mine" and Lou Rawls' "You'll never find a love like mine", but at the same time,the following year,the singer cut the equally strong "If you were my lover" for Prince Jammy.
1985 brought a reunion with Bunny Lee for the Pure Gold album, which while enjoyable,did'nt hold a candle to helicopter.
