The first living Reggae artist to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

[Symarip]

It just seems like yesterday he was in Club Paradise - when Peter O'Toole was alive, and Robin Williams was still funny.

1. Nice.

I listened to a couple of his songs on Youtube. I hadn't heard him before. Any particular stuff of his you would recommend?

12. You should watch the movie "The Harder They Come"

which introduced reggae to most American kids for the first time in the late 70s. Cliff was the star of the film. A secondary role was played by the then fairly-unknown Bob Marley. A certain place, a certain time.

I saw the film a theater in Boston where it played non-stop for a couple of years.
