#juniorByles song Fade Away could be about #Trump
"He who seeks of only vanity
And no love for humanity
Shall fade away, fade away
God is here and there and everywhere
And He knows when you play the game unfair
So people beware
Or else you fade away!"

RIP | News arrived of Devon Irons' passing, coming shortly after Junior Byles. Like Byles, Irons made his mark through his work with Lee "Scratch" Perry, recording two of his most memorable tracks, "Ketch Vampire" and "When Jah Come," in 1976. #DevonIrons #LeePerry #JuniorByles

An #Otwituary for reggae star #JuniorByles
Two roads before you, Rasta:
to the left a twilit path, clouded
by dub and collie weed; right,
the road to consciousness, the
sweet harvest of your own voice.
In the end, they both end here.

RIP Junior Byles (February 2, 1948 β May 15, 2025). Fade Away is the song I will forever associate with him.

7" of Maxie, Niney & Scratch - Babylose Burning on Justice League label. Released in 1972. Produced by Lee Perry.
Beat Down Babylon became a huge success and Scratch followed it up with several versions.
Here's a couple of them...

7" of Junior Byles - Beat Down Babylon on Justice League label. Released in 1971. Produced by Lee Perry.
Here's another of Junior Byles' all-time tunes... Beat Down Babylon.
He recorded it in 1971 with Lee Perry. Its lyrics of insurrection, Val Douglas' bassline and Scratch's whip cracking fitted the times perfectly...

Reggae has lost a legend. Junior Byles died on Thursday, May 15. With a voice full of soul and lyrics that struck deep, he gave us anthems like Beat Down Babylon, Fade Away and Curly Locks. To honour his legacy, we revisit Ray Hurfordβs article on Junior #JuniorByles #BeatDownBabylon

7" of Junior Byles - The Long Way on DIP label. Released in 1975. Produced by Lee Perry.
Very sad to hear that Junior Byles died yesterday aged 76.
A truly unique singer who sang some of the great 70s reggae tunes... Fade Away, Curly Locks, Beat Down Babylon.
This one is a personal favourite...
