It is said by many that “The Meditation is Bob Marley’s favorite group\,” which led to Bob requesting harmony and background vocals on songs like Rastaman Live Up and Blackman Redemption. The Meditations harmonic vocals can be heard on some of your favorite track such as\, Bongo Man Youths Them A Cry by Jimmy Cliffs\, Mr. Cop by Gregory Isaacs\, to name a few. \nIn 1983 Linval Thompson produced The Meditations fourth album No More Friends.  On this album all the lead vocals were sung by Ansel Cridland.  Meanwhile Danny Clarke and Winston Watson later released For The Good Of Man.   After some time separated Ansel begin to put the group back together with the release of Return Of The Meditations produced by Ansel in 1993 on Heartbeat record label. \nAnsel followed up producing and releasing Ghetto Knowledge on the Easy Star label in 1999\, then Stand In Love on his own label Meditations Music in 2004.  As of late he as gone on to collaborate with yet another great Philip Smart for his latest album Dangerous Society\, which was released jointly by Meditations Music and Philip Smart in 2011.  Ansel is a dedicated musician writing\, producing and releasing albums\, and still touring with the addition of DaddyLion Chandell and Toussaint Webb on harmony. \n\nMAN-LIKE-DEVIN “Wheel & Shoulder” is Devin Morrison\, a songwriter\, guitarist and collector of Jamaican music born and raised in Los Angeles\, CA.
