The late gravelly-voiced artiste Nicodemus was well known for a near monotonous style of deejaying, with Suzie Wong being a popular hit.
He was also fond of the dapper 'gangster' style of dressing in suits and felt hats. And, of course, there was his association with Supercat.
On Saturday night, though, an association of a different and, on the face of it, unlikely kind was made public at Mas Camp, Oxford Road, New Kingston, as Professor Nuts traced his career back to Nicodemus.
And to prove it, before he went into the history of his comedic career, lyrics and all, Nuts deejayed like Nicodemus for the large, appreciative audience at 'Giants of the 80s'.
"I am not one of the icons of the '80s. I started out 1978," he said. The Taxi rhythm had been playing as he strolled onstage, smiling, and Nuts said, "1980 that rhythm mek. Establish by a soun' name Wha Dat." Wha Dat was owned and operated by pioneering radio disc jock Barry G.
