ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL AIR JAMAICA JAZZ & BLUES FESTIVAL! - JAMAICA TOURIST #8
The 2008 Air Jamaica Jazz & Blues Festival attracted thousands of patrons who flocked to the venue next to the historic Rose Hall Aqueduct to witness outstanding performances by Anita Baker, Jill Scott, Hugh Masakela and the Queen of Blues Koko Taylor, just to name a few. The much anticipated appearance of Diana Ross was a disappointment to most of the festival’s supporters as the diva requested limited display and recording of her performance, allowing no coverage on the big screens around the grounds. Thanks to Rastafarian convert Billy Ocean, who closed the event Saturday night bringing back memories of marvelous songs like ‘Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car’ and ‘Loverboy’, the festival concluded on a high note. Supporters look forward to next year’s staging of the annual event, organized by Turnkey Productions.
