#Jamaica has ten lighthouses. (Big island has eight; Pedro and Morant Cays, one each). We are an archipelago (multiple islands), lest we forget. #Caribbean

Perry Henzell (7 Mar 1936 – 30 Nov 2006), director of the first #Jamaican feature film, ‘The Harder They Come’ (1972), born 90 years ago today, in Annotto Bay, St. Mary. Co-written by Trevor Rhone; starred Jimmy Cliff and a brilliant soundtrack; took Jamaican music, culture to global audience. Still compelling half-century later. #Jamaica #Caribbean

The late Jimmy Cliff, who’s being honored today with a state memorial in Kingston, was a patriarch of Jamaican music.
He was also a great dad to his 19 children, as his daughter Odessa Chambers tells us in a new interview rollingstone.com/music/music…

I met JIMMY CLIFF when I worked as PRO for the launch of THE HARDER THEY COME in London. As I organized publicity for the film and him as its star I got to know Jimmy and become his friend for life. His great music and the film have made him immortal. Rest in Zion Jimmy ❤️💛💚🇯🇲

Earlier this year, Natey Jones reprised the role on the same stage under the expert direction of Matthew Xia from a book by Suzan-Lori Parks. Jimmy knew about it all and was so proud. I will continue to honour the legacy he left us in that seminal film.

Our condolences to the family and loved ones of brother @jimmycliff as he makes his transition. Jimmy was an instrumental figure in Bob’s coming up, having brought him to producer Leslie Kong in 1962 to record his very first singles, “Judge Not” and “One Cup Of Coffee.” 🙏🏾🕊️
Reporter: How and when did you start making music?
BOB: “Well, I was about sixteen, living in Trench Town (Kingston 12). I always loved singing, I loved music, so over a period of time I wrote some songs and eventually did some recordings.”
Reporter: Was that with Leslie Kong?
BOB: “Yeah, Jimmy Cliff took me to see him around ’62. Jimmy was big then because he already had a hit name ‘Hurricane Hattie’ and later ‘miss Jamaica’ another big one. I really love Jimmy because he always tries to help people out.”
