Yeah. So, I had a reader a few weeks back make a suggestion which I thought was pretty interesting - He thought that it would be a pretty cool idea if someone were to just begin a site which compiled liner notes of various Reggae albums. Of course that was one of the most wonderful ideas that I’d ever heard and while I probably couldn’t do that and maintain writing for this site (and United Reggae) (and that other site, whenever he links me back) (and taking over the world in general) to the degree which I currently do, I definitely took said idea and stuck it in the back of my mind (and I should definitely mention Daniel from VIReggae.com, because he does, in fact, do just that with the albums that he posts). And when I do such a thing it opens my mind for various ideas and I think I caught hold of a most interesting thought.
.Thank Yous.
Do you actually read these things when they’re attached to an album’s liner notes? In Reggae (at least by my immediate and most incomplete of research) it’s not every time that they are included (it isn’t even half the time) and when they are, it’s . . . Yeah, it’s just kind of there - Unless your name is in it, I can’t say that paying attention to the ’Thank You’ section is very crucial to your listening experience. However, if you do REALLY pay attention to that section, you will certainly find some most interesting material. While the very foundation of the section is kind of built upon being corny and sappy as hell (I.e. “I’d like to thank _____ for giving me the strength”), it is also somewhat revealing at times and what you also find out is that - Some people are just better than others at saying “THANK YOU” . . . or are they??? Let’s examine!
First of all, given the fact that I have somewhere in the neighbourhood of forty or so Sizzla albums, that’s where I started and lo and behold, Sizzla isn’t very fond of writing the section, despite the fact that he is an absolute genius with the word. So, it wasn’t too hard to see that he made his grandest effort to say thanks on an album which he, himself, produced, 2004’s underrated ”Life”.
"My heart is so filled with joy and there is no better way to share it but as with thee.
It is truly a blessing when sons and daughter of all nations can come together to give thanks to the MOST HIGH HAILE I KING SELASSIE I JAH RASTAFARI. Without JAH nothing is possible. He has blessed me at the beginning of this album and he is continually here with me.
Special thanks to my parents who have guided me throughout most of my life and it is because of them that I can accomplish my dreams. Also to my wife and children who have watched me work day and night. Seeing them grow motivates me more to work harder, I love you all.
To all the musicians, engineers and producers who have worked with me throughout the years. I say much thanks to you all. This album is very special to me. I have put my heart and soul into writing this songs, truly this album is really the beginning of another era for me.
To my fans who have been on the journey with me from day one and who are still here JAH knows I am really grateful. I say thanks to you all, you have truly inspired me to go on, no matter the crisis of the time - let’s keep da fire burning. For those who are pursuing their goals, remember, quitting is never an option, a quitter is never a leader but a follower.
You can be anything you want to be. Just make sure to find out who you really are and not what someone else wants you to be. Then set your goals and work towards them. When things get rough say a prayer and continue on your journey and you PREVAIL. In everything you do remember always put the MOST HIGH FIRST. Remember we are the pillars of the EARTH, love is honour and respect is the foundation.
We are the sons and daughters of HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY HAILE SELASSIE I and with the unified strength of us as a people, a nation and as one human family we will survive and strive.
For the people of the Earth thanks a lot . . . blessings flow.
JAH BLESS YOU
SIZZLA"
Sappy, like I said. Sizzla would later go downright biblical on 2006’s ”Ain’t Gonna See Us Fall” album.
"HOLY EMANUEL I JOHN MARCUS I JAH RASTAFARI DELIVER ME FROM MINE ENEMIES. I MOST HIGH GOD. DEFEND ME FROM THEM THAT RISE UP AGAINST ME. DELIVER ME FROM THE WORKERS OF INIQUITY. AND SAVE ME FROM THE BLOODY MEN. FOR. LO. THEY LIE IN WAIT FOR MY SOUL: THE MIGHT GATHERED AGAINST ME: NOT FOR MY TRANSGRESSION NOR FOR MY SIN. O LORD.
THEY RUN AND PREPARE THEMSELVES WITHOUT MY FAULT: AWAKE TO HELP ME, AND BEHOLD.
THOU THEREFORE, O LORD GOD OF HOSTS, THE GOD OF ISRAEL, AWAKE TO VISIT ALL THE HEATHEN: BE NOT MERCIFUL TO ANY WICKED TRANSGRESSORS. SELAH HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY HAILE SELASSIE I, TEACHETH MY VOICE TO CHANT FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS SO THAT A BOW OF STEEL IS BROKEN BY WORDS AS YOU STRENGTHENED DAVID TO CONQUER SAUL STRENGTHEN MY HAND OVER MY ENEMIES.
YOU ARE MY ROCK, MY SHIELD AND BUCKLER; THE LIGHT OF THE INVERSE IS JAH IN HIS HOLY HABITATION.
I WILL SING OF THEY POWER: YEAH SING ALOUD OF THY MERCY IN THE MORNING: THOU HAST BEEN MY DEFENSE AND REFUGE IN THE DAY OF MY TROUBLE KALONGI, KALONJI* FOR-IVER
DEFINITION: VICTORY"
Sizzla's also fond of thanking Mamma
Some of the better Thank You sections that I found happen to come from pretty new albums. Romain Virgo’s for instance are not only pretty well done and concise, but the way they’re set up on the page is pretty nice as well.
"A popular Jamaican proverb states that “No man is an Island, no man stands alone”. Therefore I would like to use this medium to express my deepest of gratitude, to all the persons who made this album possible.
Firstly I must acknowledge the Creator for blessing me with the talent and resources to make this album a success. Special thanks to the Producers, Donovan Germain from Penthouse Productions, Darwin Brown and Omar Brown from Vikings Production, Shane Brown from Juke Boxx Productions and lastly Dayan Foster from Pete Music.
Special thanks also to all the Musicians who assisted in making the tracks.
At last but by no means least a big thank you to all family, friends, supporters, friends of the media and well wishers, who continued to support Romain Virgo because your encouragements were very vital in my success. Thank you all!!!"
Then there was Duane Stephenson from his recent ”Black Gold” album. Most interestingly, Stephenson mentions Tarrus Riley (who isn’t on the album), obviously and unsurprisingly the two have become very good friends.
"IT’S BEEN THREE YEARS SINCE THE JOURNEY TO AND FROM AUGUST TOWN AND IT’S BEEN SUCH A WONDERFUL AND ENLIGHTING ONE. I HAVE COME SO FAR AND BEEN TO SO MANY PLACES, SOME I NEVER EVEN KNOW EXSISTED UNTIL NOW BUT THIS JOURNEY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE ALONE SO FRO THIS REASON I WILL BEGIN TO THAKN THE MANY WHO HELPED ALONG THE WAY. FIRST I MUST THANK THE LORD GOD CREATOR OF ALL, MY MOTHER PATRICIA RUTHERFORD STEPHENSON AND FATHER NORMAN STEPHENSON FOR THEIR LOVE AND GUIDANCE OVER THE YEARS, MR. WARD MILLS AND SANDRA CLUNE FOR ALWAYS BEING APART OF MY EDUCATION, MISS KATHY LEVY, RONNIE NASRALLA AND THE MANY MEMBERS OF STAFF AND TEACHERS AT THE LITTLE PEOPLE AND TEEN PLAYERS CLUB, MY BROTHERS FROM TO-ISIS ROBERT MORGAN, RICHARD MORGAN, R.

DEAN FRASER THANKS TO YOU ALL AND GOD’S RICHES
BLESSINGS . . . DUANE STEPHENSON."
After those I remembered one of my favourites from the past. Pressure Busspipe from his debut album, ”The Pressure Is On”. He almost certainly remembered EVERYONE.
"Greetings in the name of His Own Divine Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I 1st.
“The task is great. It demands wise judgment and statesmanship of the highest order. It requires unceasing labor and dedication of fundamental principles and objectives, and a determination to overcome all obstacles, however large. He who suffers conquers, and in the final resort, wins the Crown of Victory.
Emperor Haile Selassie 1st.

In remembrance of my aunt Diana Robles and my falling brethren: Lion Riza Blade and Jah Jah."
And of course we can’t ignore the Dancehall. One of the most memorable crop of Thank Yous came from group TOK on their own debut album, ”My Crew, My Dawgs” from 2001 (I just about teared up when I saw that this album came out NINE FUCKING YEARS AGO) (SHIT AM I THAT OLD!). They say your standard stuff, but in really nice detail and they also offer THE line of this entire post, the final one, to former members - Hilarious.
"Collectively TOK would like to thank everybody that has made this possible. Firstly Richard “Shams” Browne aka Slash manager/producer/bass player/DJ, Tony ‘CD’ Kelly and the LOY crew, J.T. Rummy and the 303 crew, Danny Browne and the Main Street Crew, Shaggy & the Big Yard crew, Salaam Remi, Dave Kelly and the Madhouse gang, Jeremy Harding, Donovan Germaine, Michelle Lin our project manager and the VP Records Crew.

Oh yeah and thanks to Marcus Vaughn, King, Kevin, Adam and anyone else who was in TOK but left, thanks a lot the money split’s a lot better now."
Beenie Man also had a nice section on his last studio album, ”Undisputed”.
"THANK YOU FROM BEENIE MAN TO MOTHER LILETH, MY BROTHER ROHAN “BLUE” SMITH, MY CHILDREN DIESHA-GAYE, ASHLEY, CRYSTAL, MOSES JUNIOR, MY SHOCKING VIBES FAMILY, JEAN GRANT, STEPHANIE TAYLOR, TRUDY ROSS, DIONNE WATT, ANDRE SUTHERLAND, ALEXIS ZAIDIE, ORAL GYLES, JODI DIXON, JANET BROWN, GEORGE PENDERGARST, ANN-MARIE LOPEZ, RALSTON “KEVIN” MCKENZIE, DEXTON MCKENZIE, PATRICK ROBERTS, CLYDE MCKENZIE, TANTO METRO & DEVONTE, KIRK DAVIS, SILVER CAT, JOHN HYPE, MR.

As did Kartel on his album, ”Up 2 Di Time”. It wasn’t lengthy at all, but he covered all the bases I believe.
"Big Up God, Di boss;
Big Up my Mother, Father, Sisters & Javani My Brother who are my inspiration; Big Up my son Jaheim who is my life & Shorty who is my wife; Don Corleon is #1 in production
Coolface, Diggy, Bishop, di whole Vendetta Alliance; Trevor “Baby G” James, “Lenky” Marsden, Butler my Manager, Firelinks, Cellblock & Singa Blinga a.k.a. “Don’t Play”, Roach, Super Lez, D.J. Wayne from Irie FM, Digital Cris, Arif Cooper, Big Eye Liquid, Sunshine & di whole Radio Thingy. Last but not least di fans in the stands - I love you till di End of Time.
Thanks
Vybz Kartel"
Also keeping it short and to the point was Buju Banton on last year’s ”Rasta Got Soul” album.
"GIVE THANKS TO THE MOST HIGH GOD, MY MOTHER, MY FATHER, MY CHILDREN. SPECIAL THANKS TO ALL THE MUSICIANS WHO CONTRIBUTED THEIR TALENTS.
JAH BLESS. -BB"
Also sticking relatively short was Prince Theo on ”Set The Captives Free” (and for everyone who gets tired of me mentioning this album apparently Ernie B has it RIGHT NOW basically for absolutely free).
"First of all I give thanks to our creator, using I as his instrument to spread the message of love and to share the gift of music with the world. For with you almighty Father all things are possible and without you there’s nothing that can be done. Thank’s to the family mum and dad (Cecile Peart, Headly Bailey), my 7 sisters, Isharnie, Kayon and my son Ajaye, trinity records, the Burkhalter family, Anuksha, Mark Wonder, M.Moore, Jil and Stuff, Sipho, Tuba , Fire Lion, Asher, Boris, Pat, Thom, Kadian, Taffari, Barry O’Hare, Rohan Dwyer, the Graf family, Rene, Mike Pacaud, Giddeon souljers, African soul, Jah children, all bredrens from Bath and fans all over the world.
“I always thank to the Father for his blessing - both musically and spiritually . . .”
May JAH bless you all, til Shilo . . . Prince Theo"
Soca? Soca you say???
The coolest round of Thank Yous that I found on an immediately available Soca album were from Bunji Garlin’s debut album, ”The Chronicles”. However, they were hand written and I couldn’t decipher that shit.
Still, with all of that being said. It is crystal clear who the KING of Reggae Thank Yous is because Junior Kelly rules the category with an IRON FIST. First of all, there’s his opus, ”Love So Nice”.
"Give thanks for the inspiration from the Almighty Jah Rastafari. His name is terrible and dreadful amongst men. Give thanks for the inspiration from Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Ken Booth, Israel Vibration, Dennis Brown, Luciano, Burning Spear and the Abbyssians.
Give thanks to Mama and Daddy for their undying love for each other. Their love has inspired my undying love for life and Reggae music. Give thanks for Eva Barrett and to my brother Derrick for not giving up on himself and for supporting the music, to my children Niky, Shades, Deidre, Jamal, Iesha and Carol - remember to study your books and respect your elders.
What must I say about friends? True friends do not have ulterior motives, an extra buck to gain; true friends do not ride on anothers gravy train. They speak the truth and do not lie. True friends are few and foes are many. True friends do not leave you stranded when you do not have a penny. True friends I have, at least I thinks so. I will call their names without further adieu: Shane Brown, an engineer who cannot be tamed, Mattic and Ranco, just the same because they have been around since I was dust, so if I can’t trust them now, who can I trust? Give thanks for Rohan, Carol, Nikko, Wayne, Igina, Jah Mikes, Fathead, Soya and Fisha. Give thanks to Dingie, Frankie, Marie, Rasta Keith and the rest of Front Page. These Liner notes would not mean a thing, it would lose its entire luster and it would lose all its sting if I did not mention this magnificent source of strength, Ms. Wainwright. Give thanks.
Rastafari."
Then, most curiously, take a careful look at the sections appearing on the ”Smile” and ”Tough Life” albums, respectively.
"First and foremost, I would like to give Thanks & praises to the most high , His Imperial Majesty King Haile Selassie I without whom this album would not be possible. He has humbly blessed me with this abundance of talent and lyrics.
Some elders warned me that there would be stumbling blocks in my way and that the road would be rocky, but they never said how rocky or how many stumbling blocks there would be. Thankfully, I have been able to overcome them all and the manifestation of this album is a testament to overcoming one of the major stumbling blocks. I would not have been able to do this without the help of my family and true friends, Dusty Bug Out, Otis C, Cootan, Fleshy, to name a few, who stood by me when the chips were low and gave me the vibes and the inspiration to write these songs and believe in myself and my artistic abilities.
My brother, Jim, for steering me along this path. I am sorry you were not here to see it and for us to do it together. I know we would be jumping over those stumbling blocks much quicker and easier. Mama and daddy, for the love, strength, understanding and encouragement you have given me over the years. You are my tower of strength.
My children, Nicki, Shades, Ayeshia, Jamal and Deidre, all of this is for you. You are my driving force, you give me the strength to get up, no matter how hard it may be to face today, and you strive for success. So please work hard and study your books so that you may have the choices I never had.
To producers, engineers, musicians and backing vocalists who worked on all the tracks on this album. Continue to believe in the music.
VP records for continuing to support and believe in Junior Kelly, and your efforts in the success of my career.
Remember promotion is the key and if you believe in it, together we can make it happen!!!
The fans and disc jockeys who continue to listen and play Junior Kelly I am eternally grateful. Continue to keep it real. there is a message in the music and I will always to try to prepare the correctly prescribed dosage of musical healing. As one co-worker would say “you got to be true to yourself”.
I hope you will all love this one and just “Smile”.
Blessed love,
Junior Kelly"
"The title of this album is a true testament of my life and the many stumbling blocks I have encountered along the way but thanks to the almighty, my family, friends and the fans, they never allowed me to give up. This album will take you through the many moods of Junior Kelly and his life’s struggles as a rastaman trying to make it in an industry that is so corrupt where everyone is always trying to exploit you and your talent. Again, I would not have been able to do this without the help of my family and true friends, Dusty, Bug Out, Fleshy, to name a few, who always stand by me when the chips are low and continue to give me the vibes and the inspiration to write these songs and believe in myself and my artistic abilities.
My brother Jim, continue to be my guiding light always steering me to be the best that I can be. I miss you.
Mama and daddy, for the love, strength, understanding and encouragement you have given me over the years. You are my tower of strength.
My children, Nicki, Shades, Ayeshia, Jamal, Deidre and Axum, all of this is for you. You are my driving force, you give me the strength to get up, no matter how hard it may be to face today, and strive for success. So please work hard and study your books so that you may have choices I never had.
To producers, engineers, musicians and backing vocalists who worked on all the tracks on this album. Continue to believe in the music.
Downsound Records and Joe, management, for believing in me, together we will make it happen.
VP Records for continuing to support and believe in Junior Kelly, and your efforts in the success of my career. Remember promotion is the key and if you believe in it, we must achieve!!!
The fans and disc jockeys,who continue to listen and play Junior Kelly I am eternally grateful. Continue to keep it real. there is a message in the music and I will always to try to prepare the correctly prescribed dosage of musical healing. As one co-worker would say “you got to be true to yourself”.
I hope you will all love this one and just “Smile”.
Blessed love,
Junior Kelly"
And finally, it comes down to what reigns supreme as THE Thank You section of 2010. Junior Kelly’s most twisting and somewhat brilliant, ”Red Pond”.
"Greetings one and all:
Special thanks to those who would even care to read the maze which is the thoughts of a humble Reggae artiste from a little rock situated in the Caribbean called Jamaica.
So my fans, brothers and sisters please be seated, arms and legs inside at all times and be prepared to be blown away by a roller coaster ride called faith, hope, love, hate, corruption, betrayal, triumph, strength and before I run out of paper, let me stop there.
I have been abused, disrespected, but did I take it, NO!!!
I have been laughed at and ridiculed but did I vent my anger in public, NO!!!
If the course is to be stayed, the Captain must never be afraid. He must take the blame like a good leader should and share the spoils but not the pain, because if the course is to be stayed, sacrifices have to be made, but as an artiste and I am sure a lot of other artistes can relate, that being a dad and an artiste is the ultimate high wire juggling act. So, as a Captain, the ultimate sacrifice is the thing we have always been short of, and as kind as we are we will never have enough to share, and that is TIME.
So to all the people I have helped, the children I have fathered, the people I have met, all the lives I have changed, all the hearts I have broken, all the smiles I have made happen, all the people who have comforted me, the people I have comforted, all the people who have been kind to me in this village called Reggae, and all the people who have been a perpetual thorn in my side with their only wish to have me pinned to a corner at the edge of a blade, spending so much time to destroy individuals, they have turned it into a career. So to all who have loved me, I thank you for your care and kindness, it has kept me going over the years. TO all who have hated me for whatever reason, I am sorry it must have been a misunderstanding. It my apology is not enough, please grow up and move on, don’t take every move someone makes and every breath someone takes personally.
I am here to win and I am sure the feeling is mutual, but I am a man of principles, I have boundaries, I love the world and my greatest wish is that the world loves me back!!!
RED POND, the album is out, please help me to make it what is supposed to be, a symbol of Hope, Freedom, Love and Strength!!!
Blessed Love
Junior Kelly"
So, maybe the next time you pick up a new album, you'll pay special attention to what is certainly one of the least attention grabbing sections of it - The 'Thank You' section.
{note: I typed all of these by hand and although I certainly made some of my own typos, the typos that I noticed, I intentionally left them in}
{note 2: In no way, shape or form am I making fun of any of this material}
