THEY SAID IT…

“The Alpha Boys’ School is at the roots of the explosion of Jamaican music. There are only three countries whose popular music is played all over the world—American music, British music, and Jamaican music. We owe maximum respect and thanks to the Alpha Boys’ School for its contribution to this fact.”

– Chris Blackwell, founder of Island Records
