I pay tribute to one of my favorite British reggae lovers rock stars who died at the weekend..
It is generally regarded that Louisa Mark made the first British lovers rock track called Caught You in A Lie. She only recorded one album but she had many hit singles. All of my favorite songs are in this compilation mix.
I can recall me an my Friend Christine getting ready to Louisa and others on a Saturday night. Attempting to hit her high notes!! While Sipping our Canei wine, Peach was the one, So Sweet.. YUK! lol (Cant recall the spelling) Who remembers Canei wine? OOh We thought we were so classy..LOL...and Failing brilliantly. The original Ghetto Fabulous...Ahh we so were..
Thank you for your music.. and memories that are intertwined with your sweet melodies...
Sleep Well Precious Louisa Your music lives..

ReplyDeleteThank you for putting this tribute together.
I won't be inbibibing any Canei but I will raise an "imaginary" toast to the memories.
Respect,

49 years young..Gone too soon. A real pioneer to black British music. No Canei wine for me either, now traded for a large cup of tea. cheers Eugene.
