Errol Dunkley told everyone about his 'Black Cinderella'.

Classic performances from singing veterans Sugar Minott and Errol Dunkley highlighted the Tribute To Sir Coxsone stage show, held at the Mas Camp venue last Saturday night.

Sugar Minott was in fine fettle and pleased the approximately 3000 patrons inside Mas Camp with his strong yet sweet vocals.

Displaying a youthful demeanor, Minott entered the stage to loud applause and opened his set with the Studio One classic, Vanity. Revelling in the love that the crowd poured out to him, Minott produced a high-energy stint and scored well with Forward Natty Dread, Never Gonna Give Jah Up and Mr DC.

After earning himself a deserved encore, Minnot returned to the stage and pelted the venue with Rhythm and a medley of his popular songs. When Sugar Minott left the stage it was much to the disappointment of the audience was still chanting for more but time simply did not allow for a second encore. Sugar Minott was superb and Errol Dunkley maintained the pace with his unique style and classic selections.

If there was a criticism of Dunkley's performance it was that he spent too little time on stage. The crowd just loved him and lapped up the music he had to offer.

The diminutive singer was in the pink of form and had the Mas Camp pulsating as he reeled off the anthems, Black Cinderella, You Gonna Need Me and Movie Star.
Lone Ranger, one of the pioneers in the DJ genre, was also in good nick. He scored well with Love Bump and Rosemarie but left some of his fans disappointed when he left without singing his most popular hit, Arlene.

Another bright spark for the night was the performance of Stranjah Cole, who injected life into the early part of the proceedings.
Frankie Paul was given the honour of closing the show and handled himself in his usual professional style. He never faltered as he delivered some of his popular songs before seguing into a gospel melody.

Other good performances came from a dapper Lord Creator, Edi Fitzroy, Ernest Wilson, The Melodians and the Silvertones.
Special mention must be made of the Fab Five band which provided musical accompaniment for all the acts who performed.

The tribute to the late great music producer and sound system owner, Clement "Sir Coxsone" Dodd, could have been better presented if the line-up was not overloaded with entertainers, leaving many of the performers with too little time to perform.
