Awful way to start the week with the loss of Reggae Pioneer and musical legend @jimmycliff Discovering him in my teens and watching “The Harder They Come” movie and buying the soundtrack set the course for a lifelong love of his music. I had the privilege of working with him twice..once in 1999 at the Pan American Games and then @winnipegfolkfestival in 2010. The latter is where this picture was taken by Shannon Lee Flynn. RIP July 30 1944-Nov 24 2025 🇯🇲 #jimmycliff #winnipegfolkfest

@neilyoungarchives and I went to the same high school, Kelvin High.. we had the same geography teacher! Mr Ingelson.. if you ever wanted to get him off topic, you would bring up Neil. This is from the alumni grad photo page for notable alumni, even though Neil never graduated and I did,barely. lol Needless to say one of us went on to greater things.. school photos are the great equalizer! Happy 80th Neil Percival Young! Long may you run!! #neilyoung #winnipeg #kelvinhighschool #manitoba
