BIG MOUNTAIN

Big Mountain hits up The Webster to perform their smash hits for Reggae Night!

Much like UB40, American reggae band Big Mountain brought a very commercialized version of Jamaican music to the American mainstream when their cover of Peter Frampton’s ”Baby, I Love Your Way” reached the Top Ten in early 1994. To the band’s credit, though, its three albums contain reggae roots music combined with only several R&B-ish covers, and the lineup includes two Jamaicans with excellent credentials: rhythm guitarist Tony Chin and drummer Santa Davis – both of whom played with Peter Tosh‘s band and the Soul Syndicate.
