Born May 28th 1938, Kingston, Jamaica. Began working with Clement "Coxsone" Dodd on his Down Beat sound system as a bouncer. Went on to establish his own own Voice Of The People sound system, record label and shop.
His very first recording session in 1960 produced one of the all-time classics of Jamaican music, "Oh Carolina", with vocals by the Folkes Brothers and musical accompaniment from Count Ossie. Inventive and innovative at the time, the record still sounds every bit as exciting. Buster released countless records both by himself and other top acts on his Wild Bells, Voice Of The People and Buster's Record Shack labels, which were subsequently released in the UK on Blue Beat Records.
