His importance in bringing Rastafarian music to a populist audience is matched only by Bob Marley’s promotion of the faith internationally in the 1970s.  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\nCount Ossie’s drummers performed on the first commercially released single to integrate Rastafarian traditional music with popular music: the vocal group The Folkes Brothers’ groundbreaking song ‘Oh Carolina’, recorded for producer Prince Buster in 1959. In 1966 his drummers greeted the momentous arrival of Haile Selassie at Kingston airport.  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\nHis legendary jam sessions up in his Rastafarian compound in the hills of Wareika, Kingston, are famous for the many Jamaican musicians who attended including The Skatalites players and many others. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe Mystic Revelation of Rastafari formed in Kingston in 1970, a union of Count Ossie’s Rastafarian drummers and the saxophonist Cedric Im Brooks’ horns group, The Mystics.  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\nThey are the defining group in bringing authentic Rastafarian rhythms into the collective consciousness of popular music, at once rooted in the deep traditions and rituals of traditional drumming and chanting alongside a forward-thinking, even avant-garde, artistry influenced by the likes of John Coltrane, Sun Ra, Pharoah Sanders and other pioneering African-American jazz artists charged by the civil rights movement. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- audio --\u003e \u003caudio controls=\"controls\"\u003e\n\t\u003csource src=\"https:\/\/www.capitolites.media\/previews\/LP-TalesOfMozambique.mp3\" type=\"audio\/mpeg\"\u003e\u003c\/audio\u003e","brand":"Count Ossie \u0026 The Mystic Revelation Of Rastafari","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47659434115325,"sku":"25786042","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/9384\/6695\/files\/CD-TalesOfMozambique-SoulJazz-frt.jpg?v=1781096426","url":"https:\/\/spintimerecords.com\/products\/tales-of-mozambique-color-cd","provider":"Spin Time Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
