The Four Aces asked me if I'd like to sing with them as they didn't really have a lead singer.

And I was really saying that no matter how bad things are there is always a calm after a storm, so don't give up on things.

Things will get better if you just hold out long enough.

Then my mother was taken ill and died and my father took me to St. Mary's.

Sometimes I'd hear things on other people's records and I say I wanted it on my records, but Leslie Kong said, no, it wasn't right and that it wasn't my style.

I was born in St. Andrew's and raised in Kingston then I attended the Alpha Boy's school.

So, after school, I needed to learn a trade and started to work as a tailor.
