As the Coronation of Ms. Universe 2015 fast approaches, countries all over the globe are gleaming with excitement and showing support for their favorite contestant. With no doubt, the contestants are flamboyantly showcasing their walks, elegant poses and beautiful smiles in an effort to make an impression on both the judges and the public at large.
Here in Jamaica, the home crowd is cheering for our new dearly beloved Kaci Fennell. Kaci is from the parish of Kingston and St. Andrew. She is a 24 year old, long-legged beauty who radiates sunshine from her motherland. It has been seen that she is creating a buzz in the competition already, as photos from the Ms. Universe Fan Poll Page of her are shared and liked daily. Jamaican supporters locally and across the diaspora surely announce their strong faith in her, as they encourage our fellow Jamaicans to support our reigning beauty queen.
She posts pictures daily on her social media accounts and fans just can’t help but fall in love with the humble being that she is. Various comments have been made about the reason Jamaicans are so pleased with her, many of which states that there is something unique about Kaci.
Her official Miss Universe interview has her boasting about Jamaica’s warmhearted people, our music, our cuisine and the “vibes and ting”. The Jamaican people have no doubt that Kaci will be a top contender in the competition.
As the Coronation approaches speedily, we set our clocks, phones, tablets on alarm to celebrate our remarkable country and the beauty that represents us as a people.

BRING HOME THE CROWN KACI!!!!

The 63rd Miss Universe Pageant will take place on Sunday, Jan. 25, 2015.

Harry J Allstars "Liquidator"

OLDIES SUNDAY: The Harry J Allstars – The Liquidator (1969)


Today’s Oldies Sunday selection comes from The Harry J Allstars, lead by the late Producer, Harry Johnson a.k.a. Harry J. Titled “The Liquidator“, this was an instrumental created in 1969 for Harry J Records. The people involved in the creation along with Harry included Winston Wright (Organs), Aston Barrett (Bass), and Carlton Barrett (Percussion). It was said the Instrumental was originally made for Singer Tony Scott’sWhat Am I To Do” minus a few elements. It was recorded but Harry Johnson bought the rights to the song, licensed it to Trojan Records with credit to The Harry J Allstars and added more instrumentals.

The Liquidator” became a huge success where on October 1969, it peaked at #9 on the UK Singles Chart and in 1980 it peaked at #42. The Instrumental was also became one of the anthems for the emerging “SkinHead” youth subculture. The Bass line for “The Liquidator” was later sampled by American Producer Al Bell, which was used for the massive “I’ll Take You There” single performed by The Staple Singers in 1972. It has since been sampled by Chubb Rock, Dennis AlCapone, Bassomatic and others while it was covered by “ErnieRanglin, Val Bennett, Keith Levene and others. “The Liquidator” is also used by popular Football teams Chelsea, West Bromwich Albion, and Wolverhampton Wanderers to name a few. Chelsea is one of the teams to have claimed first usage of the Instrumental and is played in tribute to the winners of the UEFA Champions League.
