One Sunday afternoon at Tuff Gong.

From left, the late Mr Carlton 'Field Marshall' Barrett.

Carly was a most influential drummer and percussionist and was once a member of Mr Lee 'Scratch' Perry's house band The Upsetters before he joined Robert Nesta and was later to develop his famous One Drop style.

Centre is the legendary Mr Aston 'Family Man' Barrett, brother of Carly and bass man supreme extraordinaire and is credited for galvanizing The Wailers.

Finally, Mr Chicken George, Robert Nesta chef on the final Uprising tour and the man who looked after my ass whilst I was with The Wailers in New York.
