In the reggae groove

Patrons were swept away on a nostalgic wave last night at the Digicel Barbados Vintage Reggae Show And Dance at the 3Ws Stand at Kensington Oval.
For just over six hours fans had a surfeit of some of the biggest reggae hits spanning four decades from Jamaican legends John Holt, Cocoa Tea, Pinchers, Yellow Man and Fab Five, and Barbados’ own Super Ruben, Tony “Poser” Grazette and Biggie Irie.
The rain that came minutes after 9 p.m. had patrons taking out umbrellas but, just like the Beach Party on Sunday, it didn’t stop the well-dressed and well-heeled women, and the dapperly dressed men, from grooving to the lovers rock and vintage reggae.
Here, the silky smooth Biggie Irie on stage during his set.
