We are delighted to confirm a true legend of reggae history. In the days of ska, Toots & The Maytals recorded great tracks for Studio One infusing all their youthful strength in their vocal performances greatly influenced by gospel. Toots Hibert made history at the beginning of reggae with an impressive series of hits like "54-46 was my number", "Monkey man", Sweet & dandy", "Bam bam" and "Funky Kingston" among others.

In 2005, he won a Grammy for his brilliant duets album "True love", proving to be still a first level protagonist. In his various gigs at the Sunsplash in Italy, he has always been in good shape and with an amazing voice.
