Notes:
A DJ as famous as his gangster namesake, Dillinger was one
of the second wave of Jamaican toasters who sprung up in the
wake of the success of U-Roy, Big Youth, and Dennis
Alcapone. By the mid-'70s, the young Dillinger had rapped
his way to the top of the pack and won international
acclaim. Renowned for his quick wit, irreverent raps, and
whacked sense of humor, the DJ remains one of the most
innovative and humorous toasters of any era. Born Lester
Bullocks on June 25, 1953, in Kingston, Jamaica, as a youth,
the DJ-to-be hung around the sound systems, lending an
occasional hand loading equipment for the El Paso setup,
home to Dennis Alcapone. This led to the bigger DJ passing
him the mic, but it was Prince Jackie's sound system that
gave the teen his first regular gig. With the departure of
Alcapone from El Paso, Bullocks took his place...and his
name, initially DJing under the moniker Dennis Alcapone Jr.
It was producer Lee Perry who convinced the DJ to change his
name, with his legendary comment: "You're different from
Alcapone. You're Dillinger."
