Biography
Ansel Cridland and Danny Clarke's careers were already well underway before the pair linked up.
Clarke, a Kingstonian by birth, had sung briefly with 'the Flames', Alton Ellis' backing group.
Cridland, born in 1951, moved to Kingston as a child, and apprenticed as a jockey. However, he ended up working odd jobs, before deciding to make his career as a singer, and formed the vocal group the Linkers during the rocksteady era.
The group's lineup was fluid, but regardless, the Linkers recorded nearly a dozen singles, although none particularly hit with the public. The duo would later form the Meditations.
