Junior Byles Curly Locks 7” vinyl
Junior Byles (Kerrie Byles Jr.)
Born 1948 in Kingston, Jamaica. In late 1967, Junior formed a vocal group named The Versatiles. They cut their first session for release on Joe Gibbs’s Amalgamated label. Three superb titles (“Just Can’t Win,” “The Time Has Come” and “Trust The Book” were recorded under the supervision of Lee Perry with musical backup from Lynn Taitt & The Jets.
Between 1968 and 1974, Perry and Junior collaborated in the production of over forth titles, including all time classics like “Curly Locks,” “Rasta No Pickpocket,” “Place Called Africa,” “Beat Down Babylon,” “King Of Babylon,” “Cutting Razor” and “Long Way.”
By the mid-seventies, Junior was a major star in Jamaica poised for international exposure.
