Delroy Wilson the original ‘Cool Operator’ was also known to many as ‘Teacher’. A title given to him as he unselfishly taught the up and coming singers including one youth Dennis Brown, the art and delivery of singing technique.

.
Delroy’s rich tone to his voice added a depth to any song that he chose to sing. Delroy Wilson (b.1948 Kingston,Jamaica) began his musical career at the school that was Coxonne Dodd’s studio One label.
After a brief stop in 1969,which saw Delroy working for producer Sonia Pottinger’s Tip Top label.
Again producing such hits including ‘It Hurts’ and ‘Put Yourself in my Place’.
The 1970’s saw Delroy Wilson’s arrival at Bunny ’Striker ’Lee’s door and what would result in a winning formula,scoring hit after hit.
It is from this great period in Delroy’s career that we have compiled this selection of killer tunes,cut with the drum and bass rhythm kings themselves Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare.Such classis as ‘Who Care’ ,’Can I Change Your Mind’,’Get Ready’,’You Must Believe Me’ and the timeless title track to this collection ‘Here Comes the Heartaches’.
An album of great tracks cut with ‘The Hitmaker from Jamaica’ Bunny Lee and his team.
