About This Title

The legendary Winston Hewitt - recording artist of Jamaica/Canada, and the lead singer of Jamaica's most successful vocal groups - The Pioneers; and founder of The Canadian Reggae Music Awards was inducted into The Museum of Canadian Music HOF, in Canada, August 31, 2023.

This was his third or fourth album, produced by Banff's own Mel Shaw who passed away early last year in Regina, Saskatchewan. "Mel was an early sparkplug on the Calgary domestic music scene, staging local dance hops, promoting local talent and even staging his own Guy & Dolls television show on CHCT-TV. When the city did not operate its own recording studio in the late 1950’s Shaw convinced an engineer at CFAC Radio station to help him record his debut 45, Mean Lover/The Swinging Sound, considered the first-ever pop single to be recorded in Calgary."
