The Story
As told in dec 2004 by Lone Ranger (LR) and Chester Synmoie (CS), Lone Ranger's longtime friend, producer & manager.

LR - Channel One in New York was a record shop and a pressing plant. In Jamaica were the studios and the sound system. "Rosemarie" was recorded with the Revolutionnaries at Channel One two months after "M16" was recorded with the Roots Radics. During Channel One "M16" album success, I came back to Jamaica (in 1981). I recorded this album right after the 2-months visa for the US ended. "Rosemarie" had the same kind of success, n°1 in Jamaica, UK, US, Canada, even though it was not as internationally big as "M16". The Channel One riddims were the riddims of the time. But not all singers and deejays sang on those riddims. It was my style. "Rosemarie" (N°1) and "Collie Dub" (n°5) were chartbusters. The album was created because of "Rosemarie". We made riddims for this album, whereas "M16" contained tracks that other number one artists were on... So, right after "Rosemarie" was recorded, I went back to the US for another american tour, then I went to England when my visa ended, stayed 6 months there, then went back to the US and soon the hiatus started...

The Story
As told in dec 2004 by Lone Ranger (LR) and Chester Synmoie (CS), Lone Ranger's longtime friend, producer & manager.

CS - The label is J&L not J&J. Joseph Hookim produced it at Channel One (Channel One was: Well Charged, Hitbound, Cord and J&L). After "Barnabas" bacame a hit, everything went rolling. At that time, Lone Ranger was the number one deejay in Jamaica.

LR - M16, as an album, is the strongest I've made. Sogie did the "M16" riddim and mixied it, too. The first he ever mixed was Lone Ranger's! I had three big hit albums: "M16", "Rosemarie" and Barnabas In Collins Wood". "On the Other side Of Dub" is different: it's an all-time classic. "Hi-Ho Silver Away" should have been big but it was only issued on a limited pressing, left in the hands of Clive Jarrett. In the 80's, Channel One Studio was the ruler. Everything that came out on Channel One at the time was diamond. Anyway... Joseph Hookim called me in Jamaica, said he heard a cassette (tape) with Lone Ranger deejaying on his tracks. He named me the tracks and asked me how long I would take to record an album on these tracks. I answered "30 minutes". So he said: "Go to the studio!". "M16" Became n°1 in Canada, America, UK, but never came out in Jamaica... Two tracks only were released in Jamaica, as singles: "M16" and "Fist To fist Days Done". I was champion DJ in 1979 and 1980 in Jamaica. In 1981 I wasn't champion DJ anymore because I had left to the US for a long tour as The Lone Ranger & The Silver Bullet Band, including a show at the Madison Square Garden...
