This is the third and final episode of the Barry G specials. Barry G played an instrumental role in the explosion of Yellowman in 1982 after the Tastee Talent Show victory by Yellowman (Beenie Man took second place in 1982). We feature a 1983 interview with Winston Foster (Yellowman) where he discusses Barry G and then talk with Barry G about King Yellowman's rise to fame. Next is a JBC studio visit with Shabba Ranks, then more radio clips, a discussion on the Royal Philharmonic John Holt show where Barry G was an MC. Miguel Lorne is then interviewed by Barry G about the Bob Marley estate in 1989. *Many thanks to Barry G for his assistance in this Podcast, to Yellowman who we spoke with so many years ago, to David Rodigan, the great Mikey Dread, Don Topping, the A&P Crew from Ohio, and everyone else who has assisted in the creation of this podcast.
