Something to Mull Over

Tune in tomorrow at 7Pm for a conversation with Carrie Mullings (and/or possibly her sister Tanya - there's always the possibility of surprise in community radio).

We'll be speaking about the upcoming tribute to her father Karl Mullings at Hugh's Room this Sunday. Mr. Mullings' legacy figures prominently in the Jamaica to Toronto story. His career as a manager was very active by the 80s, promoting Jackie Mittoo, Lovindeer, Carlene Davis and Glen Washington. I'm looking forward to finding out more about the industry challenges faced by reggae performers in Toronto from the seventies onward, as well as hearing some anecdotes about some undoubtedly lively times in the Mullings household.
