Jamaica Music Countdown MAR 30 – APR 5, 2012 by Richie B

Alas, The Invitation album by C-Sharp band holds top spot of the Reggae Bands listing for another week, March 30-April 6. Sadly The Hit List Vol 3 which held top spot for 15 weeks is now at number 7. Interestingly Strictly The Best #45 which was at number 2 last week is this week at number 3, upping Ziggy Marley’s Wild and Free from third spot last week to second place this week.
