"Before the entertainment scene in Jamaica made it possible for full-time professional musicians to exist, live music as we now know it was only occasioned by the burning love and enthusiasm of the enlightened amateur...Whylie Lopez was one of the stubborn few that managed to persist in keeping the Jamaican music scene alive." A top salesamn at J. Wray and Nephew Rum Distillers, he continued to play semi-pro engagements through thick and thin. He covered every popular dance step and popular tune. "For those who remember with warm nostalgia, for those who are curious and just plain lovers of this kind of music, this is a collector's item." Mr. Lopez died at 96 in 2008.
