Tenor Saw

Dancehall
DancehallReggae

Tenor Saw is a Dancehall and Reggae act. Their sound grew out of Sugar Minott, The Techniques and Keith & Tex. Those roots explain a lot about how Tenor Saw arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Wayne Smith, Half Pint, Pinchers, Yellowman and Gregory Isaacs, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Super Cat, Pinchers, Lukie D, FU-Schnickens and Black Dub, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 37 connections around Tenor Saw, reaching back through Sugar Minott and forward to Super Cat.
