Chapter 5: Kingston Sessions "A Deadly Betrayal" In the fall of 1997 the legendary Jamaican Saxophonist Deadly Headley Bennett invited a young Sax player to Kingston to study under Headley's musical direction. Deadly brought the aspiring horn player Rich Prafder into the studio, where the 2 recorded a demo project under the name Saxsemilla...But then that little 5 song demo tape led to a big six figure record deal, and would you be shocked to find out, everything changed.

Join Us for a cautionary tale of how power, privilege, ego,greed and the thirst for fame ad fortune would cause a righteous reggae student to stray to betray his mentor and the music he loved.
