Brown, Barry
Stand Firm
One of a handful of singers that straddled the divide between the late roots phase and the emerging dancehall style,
Barry Brown was gifted with a distinctive high tenor that rendered his voice immediately recognisable, making a lasting
impression whenever heard. His lyrics had wit, grit, and feeling, since he often spoke of the harsh realities of
Jamaican ghetto life, and equally addressed the aspirations of its inhabitants and the good times they enjoyed,
frequently emphasising the irresistible pull of a sound system dance in his recorded work.
