41 - Reggae Lover Podcast - Luciano's Greatest Hits Mix Jul 30, 2015

Show notes

We salute a living legend, reggae singer Luciano who has released 21 studio albums over the course of a brilliant 22 year career. One of my favorite artists and live performers, Luciano gained prominence around the world during the “Rastafari renaissance” in dancehall that took place in the mid-late 1990s. He established himself as a name synonymous with roots reggae and became one the sub-genre’s pillars. This 1 hour mix of 42 songs focuses heavily on Luciano's material from Where There Is Life, and Messenger, which were albums produced by Phillip "Fattis" Burrell and his Xterminator label. His latest album, The Qabalah Man, was released on the 29th of November 2013. Please support this phenomenally talented artist by buying his music/merchandise and patronizing his live concerts. You will not be disappointed.
