IMPACT! Sound 26 - Tribute To Hopeton Lewis
5:00am, 9-8-2014
<< The IMPACT! Sound
Today we pay tribute to Mr. Hopeton Lewis, who died last week. Mr. Lewis was one of the fathers of rocksteady. A great singer and a great performer, Hopeton Lewis left us with a rich catalog of tunes that will never die and, for many of us, never leave our play boxes. He was truly one of the greats. Thank you for the tunes, Mr. Lewis.
