Singer, DJ, dancer, artist
I bumped into Natty Bo at the Electric Elephant Cafe, Elephant and Castle. Natty is the singer in several successful bands including Ska Cubano, Top Cats, and Natty Congeroo and the Flames of Rhythm. He's also resident DJ at Gaz's Rockin Blues in Soho, where he spins the choicest R&B and ska on 45 and 78rpm records. His latest purchase - 'It's the Gold' by Buddy and Ella Johnson on Decca 78rpm.
