Desmond Dekker is a Jamaican ska, rocksteady, and reggae songwriter and musician. Originally a welder by trade, it was his colleagues who encouraged him to pursue a career in music when they heard him sing at work. Eventually he signed a recording deal with Beverley's and became one of Jamaica's biggest stars. He is also credited with starting the career of his former welder colleague Bob Marley.
In 1993 he released the joint album "King of Kings" with the English ska band The Specials on the famous reggae label Trojan Records. "King of Kings", which was released under the name Desmond Dekker and The Specials, contains songs from Dekker's musical idols such as Byron Lee, Theophilus Beckford, Jimmy Cliff and his friend and Kong label colleague Derrick Morgan.
