Black Uhuru, live from The Ritz, New York on October 13th 1981

By 1981, Black Uhuru's line-up consisted of Michael Rose, Sandra 'Puma' Jones and Derek 'Duckie' Simpson, augmented by the legendary Sly & Robbie. Originally broadcast on WBLS-FM, this superb performance showcases their classic Red album, alongside earlier material, and typifies their tight, exciting sound.

Performed barely three months after the death of Bob Marley, it carries a distinct emotional charge and is presented here together with background notes and images.
