On December 9th, 1994 Garnett Silk was taken from us at the young age of 28. He lives on through his music which helped form the early 90’s foundation for conscious roots reggae. Few artists can boast such a powerful and soothing singing melody. Here is a classic tune from the Late Great Garnett Silk that features a young Buju Banton. “Let Jah be praise and wicked man be scatter. Listen to Buju and the Archangel.”
