Reggae Artiste Black Uhuru Biography by InfosysTV The most successful of the second-generation reggae bands, Black Uhuru maintained their high quality despite numerous personnel changes in their 40-plus-year history. The first reggae band to win a Grammy award, for their 1983 album Anthem, Black Uhuru was called "The most dynamic and progressive reggae act of the 1970s and early '80s." The band, whose name comes from the Swahili word meaning "freedom," was formed in the Waterhouse district of Kingston by Don Carlos, Rudolph "Garth" Dennis, and Derrick "Duckie" Simpson. When the group experienced difficulties securing a record contract, Spencer left to pursue a solo career and Dennis joined the Wailing Souls. Simpson, who remained the thread throughout Black Uhuru's evolution, reorganized the band with Errol "Jay" Wilson and quivery-voiced lead vocalist Michael Rose.

Dozens of people have been killed in
a Taliban attack on a heavily fortified civilian and military airfield
in the southern Afghan city of Kandahar.
The defence ministry said
that at least 37 people, including many children, had been killed in
the clashes. At least nine militants were also killed.
A number of hostages were seized in the 26-hour attack before Afghan forces retook the airport.
Final "mopping up operations" were now under way, military officials said.
The
Taliban said a number of suicide fighters managed to enter the base
with weapons. They said "martyrdom seekers" had launched "thunderous
attacks on foreign and hireling personnel".
The defence ministry
statement said that a total of 11 insurgents took part in the attack. As
well as nine killed, another was injured. Reports said a final gunman
held out on his own for several hours before being killed late on
Wednesday evening.
Kandahar security officials put the number of attackers at 12, all of whom had been killed.
At least 35 people were injured in the attack, the defence ministry said.
The raid was the latest in a series of battlefield victories by the Taliban who briefly seized the northern city of Kunduz in September.
The airport compound houses Afghan military and civilian sections as well as a Nato base.
Officials said the attackers initially managed to breach the first gate of the complex. Tolo News TV
said the insurgents were dressed in military uniform and were equipped
with light and heavy weaponry. It has reported that 14 insurgents were
killed.
A doctor at a military hospital, speaking on
condition of anonymity, told the BBC that a number of bodies had been
received, including those of four soldiers. The hostages were believed
to include women and small children.
Correspondents say the attack
is a huge security failure because the attackers were able to smuggle
weapons into an area supposed to have been made secure by the Afghan
National Security Forces (ANSF).
Kandahar army commander Sher Shah
told reporters that radio intercepts had found that some militants were
speaking in Urdu - a language more common in neighbouring Pakistan.
Afghan officials frequently blame Pakistan for unrest.
The statement by the Taliban claimed that they had killed up to 80 soldiers. This figure could not be verified.
Kandahar airport director Ahmadullah Faizi told AFP
news agency that some passengers waiting to board a commercial flight to
India had been trapped inside the airport's civilian terminal, at some
distance from the fighting, during the attack.
Separately, the Taliban claimed to have captured Khanashin district in southern Helmand province.
A local official, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the district had fallen.
Militant violence has increased across Afghanistan since the departure of most Nato and US forces last year.
The
latest violence came as Afghan President Ashraf Ghani called for help
to defeat terrorism, at a regional conference in Pakistan.
Afghan
Foreign Minister Salahuddin Rabbani, speaking at the conference, called
on Pakistan to help restart stalled peace talks with the Taliban.
