Same Old Story

2017 release. Keith & Tex are Jamaican rocksteady icons, with classics for life. Keith Rowe and Phillip Tex Dixon, both originally from Kingston, were introduced by a common friend and soon formed a singing group which contained three other friends singing everywhere possible, trying to get the chance to record fresh material. They auditioned for the most important producers at the time in Jamaica like Duke Reid, Prince Buster and Coxsone Dodd, but were not successful as a five man group, so the group disbanded leaving the duo Keith and Tex. They later auditioned for Derrick Harriott who recognizing their talent, recorded the duo's best moments on 7quot; by the end of the 60's. 2016 sees the release of new original music produced and composed by Roberto Sanchez at A-Lone Ark Muzik Studio with the addition of a new single featuring two new tunes, a release which is followed by this album you are holding in your hands right now, released in 2017.
