New York -As daylight dimmed, on Saturday May 30, the half-moon showered a bright silver glow over the Premier Baptist Church (PBC) at the corner of Tilden and Utica Avenues in Brooklyn, where the Rev. Robert Watler pastors. Inside, parishioners waited patiently past the 7 PM start time for the opening of a fund raising concert featuring Crossfire Steel Orchestra. Sensing the tension of the delay, Khuent Rose, the musical director of Premier Baptist Church and the arranger for Crossfire took to his double second. Accompanied by drums and bass and lead guitar, Khuent delivered a reggae-flavored version of “Glory To His Name”. With the space warmed and opened to praises, Assistant Pastor Gideon Akers assumed his master of ceremonies duties declaring, “The Holy Ghost Power is in the house tonight, what we can’t do with words , we will do with music.” click for more

  • Play it pon de road or play ina de yard
    Play it tenor soft or baseline hard
    Its magic will work on de good and de bad

    Play it pon de stage or channel it thru web page
    Pan music will humble and chase way all rage
    When you play it for Priminister Prince or queen
    Pan music lost souls will forever win

    But play it in church for priest and congregation
    And it will destroy de demon dey calling satan
    Dat prowling de earth to cripple de nation

  • The concert was a very good venture; one that was for a good cause. I thank everyone in Crossfire Steel Orchestra for working extremely hard to make this concert a success. A special thanks is also owed to Iman Pascall for being the great musician that she is. :-)
