That smile at 29:06 just Wow...this man emmanated pure love from his very Being. I was there this night. My first introduction to Midnite. I ran from my camp at the first notes. It was love at first sound. Five hours of Pure Bliss. The Heavens literally opened up that night. LIttle did I know my introduction to Midnite would be short-lived as they disbanded only few months later after 25 years of gracing us with the most amazing and profound music. 70 plus albums over 25 years is incredible. I was privelged to be able to film him as Akae Beka in Humboldt County (my Home town and stomping grounds) in May of 2019 and saw him again at my favorite beach, Moonstone Beach (which I had suggested to the promoters back in May as a place that would be amazing to host him at). I was not allowed to record that night but it was a magical September Full Moon, and the next day he went up to Williams, Oregon, where he put on an incredible concert at the same community where he had come out as Akae Beka five years earlier. Full Circle,. Less than two months later we would lose this Giant. I cried everyday for a year. I cry dry tears...Still. Rest in Power, Great One. Love and miss thee foriver, Ras Vaughn Benjamin. Thank u for the gifts, King!!! Word, Sound and Power, Beloveds. Chaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Up up 2022!!!
Ras Tafari! RASTAFARI! Got me 😭 “I ran from my camp at the first notes.” yooooo😩😫😩😩😫😩😫🥹🥹🥹🥲🥲🥲mad love mad respect 🫡 bless thee inna yah trod grateful to read such words of resonation
Just outstanding !!!!!! Vaughn B. spreading his wise truthspeaking lyrics out to the world. Thumbs up for this fantastic, talented deep roots-reggae group from US VI. One of the best........Thnx for uploading. Jah blessings.
Yes ini stand witness over 5 hours of transmission straight from most high band came on at 12 finished round 530 am and Vaughn still reason with us hours after show blessed memories give thanks life health and strength jah is the giver
For Isra-el !!! Haven't heard a full band version of Beta Israel in looong time. Like at least 6-7 years. And what a massive version, what an offering, what a band, SELAH!
chappahx he doesn’t bro... lyrics consistently change (adding verses from other songs) every time they perform(ed)... 😔 I get what you are saying... Vaughn has dropped more knowledge on me in 20 years than I could ever learn in a lifetime... grateful to share the same time and space with Midnite in this human existence! Peace brother!
Vaughn Benjamin is no ordinary singer.. he is a scholar before a singer.. a historian before a lyricist.. a wordsmith before a wordplayer.. there is nobody like him.. & there is no band like Midnite.. their flow in these 4 hour or 5 hour sets is unparalleled by all bands worldwide.. this is an experience not just a concert.. a healing in the form of waves & vibrations.. the sounds from heaven.. transmuted by carbon organisms we love & cherish
massive raspect for bradda Ron for playing the guitar bass,but quick without forgetting lion Vaughan singer of the band and all the crew of the band big raspect to all with the lovely work they do,coz when JAH say everything is work,Rastafari is the place to stand no where else
A recording of the full set would be magical. Were you not able to recrled the first few hours? I'm sure it can be tough to record when not knowing how long the musical soul lifting messages will be expressed. Amazing sound and sight. Thank you for your efforts.
Full set was recorded.. I had a camera malfunction and lost a corresponding .xml file on the sd card. still have the card - hope to remedy one day. I do have full audio
I agree...This was top notch dedication on Bill's part to capture this night....omg...Their audience was more than us that night...A Celestial Audience was present! Jaaaahhh Rastafari!!!
Hail HIM Haile Selassie I Germawi Qedamawi and Hail HIM High Bless the whole world this day July 23rd 2024 and forIver more His Exemplary Majesty showed the world how to Live in Love and showed all world leaders how to move with diplomacy in the most dire straights One Love cohesion CoheZion
E pra mim ela pros cara tem um proposito,eu acho,pq em Rastafari,a bateria sao como armas,tipo tanque,metralhas,etc.aquela batida no prato que ele fica a maior parte do tempo tocando,soa um som de espadas se batendo.

+Jason Dodge no, I do hope to one day. I need to recover some lost data on the memory card I used. it is doable, but i need to find the right person to recover the data. for instance .. I have multiple files.. each file has I think - an mp4 file... and also a corresponding .xml file. file 1.mp4 + file 1.xml , file 2.mp4 + file 2.xml ... and so on. in a later file I have the .mp4 portion but no corresponding .xml file. == need to find the Keyman!
Hello Bill! Great work! Did you find the keyman? In this time, all we need a wash in soul... Please, give us some midnite! Brasilians natty watching you... Bless and love
