""Dread 'ave something fi do with the poison flour?"

"There's a man who lives next door, in my neighbourhood, in my neighbourhood, him die to poison flour!"
I listened to "POISON FLOUR" by DR. ALIMANTADO while walking this morning.
Toasted over Horace Andy's cover of John Holt's "Man Next Door," this classic reggae deejay track portrays an incident during Jamaica's violence-plagued mid-70s in which a number of Kingston residents were killed after eating bread made with contaminated flour.
One of the wonders of reggae is that the musicians could match such troubling lyrical subject matter with such joyously catchy music.
The sun is shining and the skies are blue (following a gloomy day yesterday), so I plan to listen to reggae whenever I get the opportunity today.
