Mikey Dread was the boundary-pushing DJ and producer whose mid-'70s reggae radio show led to work with the Clash and a host of other artists. In 1975 Mikey Dread was playing reggae on his Dread At The Controls Show, and he heard Fitzroy’s demos. Fitzroy’s first hit, ‘Miss Molly Colly’, broke into the Jamaican Top 10 as the result of Dread’s patronage, and the follow-up, ‘Country Man’, confirmed him as Dread’s protégé.
