Review: The Congos formed in the mid-70s by Cedric Myton and Roydel "Roy" Johnson and emerged during reggae's Rasta movement. Cedric, whose music career began in the rocksteady era, co-founded the Tartans before forming The Congos with Roydel, who previously sang with Ras Michael and the Sons of Negus. Heart of the Congos is their 1977 masterpiece and it was produced by Lee Perry so is a real reggae classic. Despite limited promotion, it remains a gem and Cedric, the band's core, continues the legacy by crafting soulful, Rasta-driven songs that echo their enduring magic and profound message.
