Jamaican Everywhere

[Are Lindsey and Stevie Australian too?]

From the Jamaican-Gleaner, this is a question to producer Donovan Germain

How did you meet Marcia Griffiths, and how long have you been friends?

I have known Marcia since 1986. I was living in New York and I had a song that I wanted to record with her, so I came to Jamaica and I think it was Sly Dunbar who took me to meet her. We discussed the song, which was entitled Everywhere, and later recorded it at Tuff Gong Studios. It was actually a song originally done by Fleetwood Mac, an Australian group of musicians, and we did a reggae version of the song and it did very well in Europe.

Since then, Marcia and I have developed a fruitful professional and personal relationship. Right now, I am her manager/producer and we are now working on her next album entitled, Marcia Griffiths and Friends. This is a collaboration between herself and Beres Hammond, Buju Banton, Queen Afrika, Lady Saw, Etana, and others.

Through our professional association we began to spend time together outside of the studio and we developed a friendship that transcends business. We now share the personal aspects of our lives.

Marcia Griffiths is the one who does "the electric slide" song that gets played at like dances and weddings and stuff. She should do one with Fleetwood mac. hahaha thats what the band needs to start a dance craze! Stevie almost had us goin with 2004s "the say you will"

Define "Europe" because I've never heard of it.
