On hearing of the passing of Aston ‘Family Man’ Barrett, we dug into our archives of unreleased material and resurrected a song we wrote about the man himself some years back.
For Aston:
His influence in the reggae world is undeniable. The track was recorded at Transmitter Studios in Freeburgh with new vocals by Pat Powell…that signature sound! A couple of modified horn arrangements and some fairy dust percussion and the song was ready to have a new life. Aston is still the man!
Hope you like it. Bless Up !.
Aston …. we love you!
