The Phantom's Whisper

In the heat of 1976, deep in a Kingston studio, a legendary session unfolded—one that would become the stuff of myth and mysticism. Inspired after watching the chilling ghost story The Signalman, three electrifying female vocalists—Marcia "Honey" Lewis, Rita "Sun" Bailey, and Angela "Moon" Taylor—joined forces with enigmatic producer Darnell "Dubs" Kingston to conjure something truly otherworldly. Their voices intertwined like the spirits of the past, blending ethereal harmonies with cosmic vibrations that seemed to rise from the Jamaican soil itself. With Billy Noknees, the founding member of OBIISSS, at the helm, the group embarked on a haunting musical journey. Billy, entranced by their sound and enraptured by their energy, married Angela "Moon" Taylor during the week-long session and christened the trio The Brides of OBIISSS, sealing their bond in music and mysticism.

Over the course of seven days, with the eerie ghost stories of M. R. James as their reading material between takes, the group laid down 14 tracks, each one more haunting and mesmerizing than the last. The dark, spectral influence of stories like Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad and A Warning to the Curious seeped into the very fabric of their sound, weaving an atmosphere of dread and beauty into their reggae-dub fusion. Their music became a spectral dance of rhythm, soul, and shadow, with each track carrying the weight of ancient whispers and the chill of unseen presences.

For decades, these tapes were thought lost, swallowed by the sands of time and the mystery that surrounded The Brides of OBIISSS. But following the recent death of Angela Taylor, the last surviving Bride, the session tapes have miraculously resurfaced, sending shockwaves through the music world. The lost recordings, once considered a myth, have been carefully remastered and reissued, capturing the raw magic of that fateful week in Kingston. Now, the 14 tracks, drenched in supernatural energy and storytelling, are ready to be heard again, as powerful and otherworldly as they were in 1976.

This reissue is not just a collection of songs—it’s a resurrection of a forgotten chapter in music history. The ghostly vocals of Marcia, Rita, and Angela rise from the past, wrapped in the eerie echoes of their M. R. James-inspired week, casting a spectral light on the legacy of The Brides of OBIISSS. For those who dare to listen, this is a journey into the heart of mystery, music, and the supernatural.

Chasing Unreachable Dreams

Close your eyes
let me take all your cares away
Close your eyes
are you there? do you feel me 
you can have it your way
Another lover
another night in my bed
You felt the hunger
as the rush hits your head

Close your eyes
let me take all your cares away
Close your eyes
are you there? do you feel me 
you can have it your way

Whoa baby

as the rush hits your head

It's in the night when we roam
yet everyday we recover
This love I've found
Is a love like no other


Close your eyes
let me take all your cares away
Close your eyes
are you there? do you feel me 
you can have it your way

From jukebox corners and back-alley promises comes the lost soul soundtrack to a film that never hit the screens but always lived in the grooves.

Loaded Brew serves up 11 shots of pure ’70s heat — from the tear-stained confession of “If He Ever Makes You Cry” to the tender surrender of “I’m the One Who Loves You.” Each track walks you through Carlena and Peter’s forbidden love story: the secret dances, the whispered wishes, the bruised nights, and the final run for freedom.

“Close Your Eyes” pours out Peter’s promise of escape.

“This Feeling” rides a groove you can’t talk yourself out of.

“You’ve Been Crying” holds the hurt in one hand and hope in the other.

“I Can’t Stay Away” spins like a slow dance in a smoke-filled lounge.

“Kisses” simmers with fire-softened tenderness.

“Wishing” looks up at the stars and dares to believe.

“JT Lude” crawls through the city like a shadow.

“Shadow of a Man” lays bare the weight of doubt and broken pride.

“I Had to Run (You Came For Me)” runs breathless through the night.

“I’m the One Who Loves You” is the sunrise after the storm.

Loaded Brew: sippin’ smooth, hittin’ heavy.
Drop the needle, dim the lights, and let the movie play in your mind.

Close Your Eyes

Still My Baby Tonight

Greetings friends, prayers for peace ✌🏼 amongst all humanity on earth. 
Love 💕 Light, and Infinite Intelligence to you!
