Hanna links culture to progress
Before last Sunday’s opening session of the weekly Grounation series began at the Institute of Jamaica, East Street, Kingston, Youth and Culture Minister Lisa Hanna made the link between Jamaica’s culture and hoped for development.Herbie Miller, curator of the Jamaica Music Museum, stated two primary objectives for the repository of musical memory – to build an enviable collection and have a building in which to house it. The first of four Grounation sessions for February focused on drummer Count Ossie, leader of the Mystic Revelation of Rastafari from east Kingston, who died in 1976.
