Beautiful reggae song from album "Are we a warrior" released in the year 1979 by a talented and spiritual artist Ijahman Levi. Born Trevor Sutherland, in Christian, Manchester, Jamaica, IJahman Levi spent most of his childhood around Trenchtown, Kingston. His first recording was "Red Eye People" in 1962. He left Jamaica for England at the age of 17, and as a teenager in England he became a member of an all-Jamaican group known as the Vibrations. They shared the stage with such artist as Wilson Peckett and Billy Stewart. After the dissolution of the Vibrations, he formed part of the group Rudie and Youth (IJahmen) and the Shell Shock Show, which traveled on the continent. During 1972-73 he became known as "IJahman", as his spiritual pursuits provided personal strength at a time of great adversity in his life. Having spent formative years of his life in both the "roots" environment of his native Jamaica, and in the culturally diverse and cosmopolitan England, IJahman's music defies boundries and narrow definitions. Bypassing marketing gimmicks and musical cliches, IJahman's music touches the feelings of spirituality, love and humanity that unite all true music lovers. IJahman's immersion into spirituality, love and artistic talent, is "full time", not just confined to the studio. He has a beautiful family with Madge Sutherland, a talented singer in her own right. IJahman and Madge, two dedicated bible readers, joined hands in the single "I DO", which reached number one in the British charts in 1985. After recording two successful LP's with Island Records, IJahman Levi formed his own production company "Tree Roots Productions", and has self-produced 19 LP 's / CD 's. Using some of the finest musicians in the industry - Chinna Smith, Sly & Robbie, Lloyd Parks, Ras Michael, Steve Winwood and Black Uhuru. Ijahman's music has created a touring demand in Holland, Sweden, Spain, England, Germany and Switzerland. In 1994 IJahman packed the house in 28 venues in 30 days throughout France.
