Description
His international breakthrough came in 1974 with the hugely popular1000 Volts of Holtalbum, which fused raw reggaerhythms with sophisticated orchestral arrangements.The highlight of the long-player was a reworking of Kris Kristofferssons country hit, Help Me Make It Through The Night, whichthe following year became a global hit, with the single, peaking at Number 6 in the UK charts. Over the years that followed, Holtremained a giant of the reggae scene with further best sellers and numerous sell-out shows around the world.
