Ras Cardo 1964 Trench Town -Reggae Opera - creation.

I am sure that by now the world knows about Ras Cardo( Ricardo Scott)- reggae creator and inventor who also helped to create and pioneer the music from those early trench town days with his brethrens, the likes of Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Joe Higgs, and many others whom he mentored while as a youth growing up with them.

Few people knew(unless you were living in trench town with them) that Ras cardo, then a young Ras at the jesuit school of St. Georges College in Kingston also created and pioneered what he called- Reggae Opera- a new genre from his original named reggae creation. At the time he was the one who brought reggae music to school and sung it with his friend Geoffrey Chung there almost facing the possibility of being expelled. however the jesuits understood their creativity and gave it their blessings.

Ras cardo has since copyrighted and trade marked the term- Reggae Opera which like the word- Reggae-from which it spins comes under his exclusive rights. He has introduced to the world the first Reggae opera Diva(divinely inspired, vocal acappella)- Janet Scott also from Jamaica and the first ever A-soprano reggae opera person to carry that title and honor to the people of trench town and to the world.(c) Ras cardo trench town reggae/ras cardo speaks 2009.
