The birth of ska in Jamaica was one of the most influential musical movements of the 20th Century, paving the way for rocksteady, reggae, dub, ska-punk, dancehall, hip-hop, jungle, grime, drill and beyond.
“Trombone Man: Ska’s Fallen Genius” tells in illustrated comic book form, the tragic story of the Skatalites’ doomed trombonist and composer, Don Drummond and his lover, the rhumba dancer Margarita Mahfood.
