He was raised by his mother and grand aunt Kate, a white woman. his mother used to have a big grocery shop and a bar and was doing good and white grandparents were wealthy and they had acres of land in Clarendon.
Israel vibration went into Treasure Isle studio with producer U- Booth and recorded the single “Why Worry” and a new version of “Bad Intention” for its flip.
The group’s exquisite dread sound and militant cultural themes made an instant impression and the trio now found themselves on-stage opening for the likes of Bob Marley and Dennis Brown
In 1977, Israel vibration began work on their follow-up, “The Same Song,” with producer Tommy Cohen. By the time they were done, the group had another hit song and a debut album of stunning proportions, which was titled after the single.
