Tune of the Week: The Mystic at the Black Ark

Anthony Johnson achieved great fame in Jamaica and beyond with his dancehall hit, “Gunshot”. Before that he spent time with Rastas on Selassie Drive in Kingston. Him, Les Clarke and Balvin Fials sang songs of righteousness as the Mystics Eyes. They recorded an album worth of songs for Linval Thompson and this golden nugget at the Black Ark for Lee ‘Scratch” Perry. Happy tax season, one and all. Oh, and burn down babylon while you’re at it!
