Country music in Jamaica

This is a few years ago but I'm hoping someone may still be active here. I'm wanting Caribbean immigrants and their children to fill out a survey regarding American country music. I am undertaking research for a dissertation. I would appreciate it if someone could get in touch. Regards Judy

not that many Caribbean immigrants on this board Judy...If you want to ask around on forums I would start with other reggae boards: www.bloodandfire.co.uk/, s7.zetaboards.com/PAMA_FORUM/index/, djgreedyg.proboards.com - there used to be a much more general Jamacians in the UK forum, but it shut in 2011, not sure if there's anything like that now.

As it is you need people of a certain age I'd imagine, and most of that generation probably aren't on message boards...

is your research something you could do over the phone? If so I know someone who would LOVE to talk to you...

No. This is an elderly, almost house bound Jamaican lady. She loves to talk on the phone though!

it sounds like interesting to research to me - Id love to hear the results - but I think your going to have to get out there and meet people. I doubt many people are going to Skype you about this.
 
I'd get off to church in your best hat and talk to elders after the service. Of all the older West Indians I know, I can't think of one with computer skills, let alone a computer.
