Gillian Moore

The tal­ent­ed singer and pro­duc­er per­formed In Your Eyes, fea­tur­ing east­ern melody and rhythms and im­press­ing his lis­ten­ers with some im­pres­sive, war­bling falset­to notes. Shel­don stoked nos­tal­gia with a ren­di­tion of Watch Out My Chil­dren, the an­them that took the jamoo mes­sage of his fa­ther, Ras Shorty I, to T&T and the world in the 1980s. He fin­ished up with Moun­tains Over­flow­ing With Wa­ter as a lagniappe, be­fore DJ Tillah Willah (jour­nal­ist/ac­tivist At­til­lah Springer) kept the peo­ple danc­ing with lo­cal and in­ter­na­tion­al hits. It had been a great night of pos­i­tive mu­sic. Black­man's mu­sic, like a balm to the soul, had been long missed and was cher­ished by those who were lucky enough to wit­ness it.
