Every little thing's gonna be all White Chapter 5: "Kingston Sessions" (B side)

 Chapter 6: The Conclusion of Rootsland Season 6 : Kingston Sessions "A Deadly Betrayal" In the fall of 1997 the legendary Jamaican Saxophonist Deadly Headley Bennett invited a young Sax player to Kingston to study under Headley's musical direction. Deadly brought the aspiring horn player Rich Prafder into the studio, where the 2 recorded a demo project under the name "Saxsemilla"...But then that little demo tape led to a big six figure record deal, and would you be shocked to find out, how easily that "righteous" reggae student would be lured over to the dark side.
