I saw Michael perform in Birmingham, UK, he was so entertaining, professional and sweet. One female audience member had the hots for him and was doing her very special flirty dance in his honour. It was a dangerous time for successful Jamaicans to live in their home country. Have things changed?

Thanks for posting this. There is a video of Michael reciting Mi Cyaan believe It. It was on the telly box in the 80s. My English teacher brought it in to watch. Hopefully someone will have it...perhaps my old English teacher.

Forgot that you can't post links in comments, but Michael Smith's Mi Cyaan Believe It LP can be found online on a blog called Distinctly Jamaican Sounds.

Thanks for posting, there was also an excellent documentary on UK TV about Michael around the time Mi Cyaan Believe It came out, would love to see it again but have no idea how to go about tracking down a copy.

This video has made my night possible my year. Long time I don't see the movements of the man nor hear his voice. The video kind of jerk me up a bit emotionally and otherwise.(Wow( Dub Poetry is alive: So let's "write and chant the poetry with the jacan descant like bredda claude mckay well hard living aboard."
