It is not unfamiliar to associate reggae and Rastafarian with the music of a specific artist. Rastafarian is a religion and captured in their music, a way of life. With the advent of compact discs in the 1970s and the cross over from vinyl to a new format, Burning Spear CDs quickly replaced the manufacture of vinyl records. This type of media storage enhanced the music industry.
Sony did tests in the 1970s on laser disk technology and demonstrated that data could be stored on a smaller hardware compared to the bulky hardware used up until then, such as vinyl records. Their primary goal was to develop a means whereby recordings could be played back to listeners. A secondary goal was to develop this means of storage whereby information or data could be stored and erased then stored again for other types of data capturing.
With the inception of the compact disk, users did not take immediately to this new way of listening to their music of choice. Vinyl had been around for some time and because of sentiment most hung on to their vinyl records out of pure nostalgia for a digital era receded. However, for the generation that were born into this era of digital play back recordings took easily to it as vinyls became of lesser use and were seen as a lower quality recording compared with laser disk storage.
Songs are about feelings. About beliefs and the people and things that mean something to you. This is what an artist once said before introducing his opening song to a massive audience. For Winston Godfrey Rodney this idea pervades most of his music. His music conveys the passion that he has for his beliefs and these ideas echo in the melodies of his music.
From an island in the Caribbean and a dot on the map called Saint Ann, it was fate that the beginning of fame, originated. A simple story of a farmer and a musician seeking recognition and better way of life through their music. The artist has been making music since 1969 when he recorded his first song, 'Door Peep'.
Since the recognition as an artist from those early days, he has gone on to win two Grammy award nominations. The favorite songs listened to by millions, are 'Jah is Real' and 'Calling Rastafari'. The music beats to a sense of timelessness and has captured an audience of millions.
Songs of peace and a passion for the rights of man are depicted in nearly all of his songs. One cannot help but be drawn into the passion of the playing and gain a sense of beliefs. Success can be attributed to these very same reasons, a deep sense that he has for his religion and a passion for music expressed in burning spear cds.
