Back to the records:
I did ‘Turn Off The Lights’ for Jah Screw, and it’s doing pretty well all over the place. Another tune for Jah Screw is called ‘we Are The Conqueror‘ and that is going to be out very soon as the follow up. I did a recut of ‘I Am The Don’ for Jah Life, as well as a song called ‘I’ve Got To Tune In‘ and ‘Love Is So Real‘. I did an album for Bunny Lee called ‘Live Up Roots Children‘ that has just come out. Bunny Lee has another song out from me called ‘Girl You Got Me Going‘.
He then recalled a couple of releases from Prince Jammy, remembering that he has a jointly produced album with Jammys awaiting completion. Recent releases have included ‘Make This Love Be True‘ for willie Lindo, and ‘Don‘t Leave Me An Inch’ for Clive Jarrett.
Leroy continues:
I am intending to keep up my musical career for years and years and years, and I will be giving the people good music, great music. I will never leave out my dancehall style. I always visit the dancehall, see what’s happening, see what the people like, to know what’s going on and to know what to give the people. I also do classic type of reggae too. I do any type of reggae as long as it’s what the producer wants. My label is called worldwide Success, that produce my biggest hit from last year ‘Draw Card’. My label is a very popular label today and it will be keeping up that standard. Right now, I’m trying to do some investment in opening a studio in the near future. I’am a man that is always trying to be very curious about my spending because no—one knows what the future may bring. Today you hold money and tomorrow things may not be nice. So, I have to be very smart in this time. Well, my name is Mr Smart and everybody class me today as ‘The Don‘! I did a song for Junjo Lawes called ‘I Am The Don’, quite a successful tune, and another one released abroad called ‘Mother Lashie’, as well as ‘Talk About Pauline‘, ‘The Girls Nowadays‘ and ‘Settle For Me‘.
We then went into some mutual head—scratching trying to remember the albums issued in Leroy’s career. He feels that his LP count stands at least at l7, although at the time we could only identify 13. ln a final burst of conversation he listed his favourite artists. Ken Boothe, Delroy Wilson, Alton Ellis, John Holt, and reminded us that along with many of Jamaica’s musical greats, he was a product of Alpha Boys School.
That was where I really gained my skill, and my reputation, and a lot of good things that I can really remember. well, I‘m saying to myself right now, I‘m thanking each and everyone – all of my fans all over the world. So one love and Jah Guide to each and everyone all over the world. I will keep up the good work till the end of time. So, Jah Guide!
