Joseph Winston Sterling, who performs as Josey Wales, began deejaying on Kingston's Roots Unlimited sound system in the late 1970s before moving to U-Roy's King Sturgav sound and later Volcano. His 1983 hit 'Leggo Mi Hand' established him as one of the defining voices of early-1980s dancehall, prized for his rugged, rhythmically precise chatting style.
