Enos McLeod

Enos McLeod (born 1946) is a Jamaican reggae singer and music producer whose career dates to the mid-1960s.

McLeod was born in 1946 in Trenchtown, Kingston, Jamaica, and before his career in music he trained as a cabinet-maker and a boxer.

[1] His debut release was "Mackie", which was produced by Sid Bucknor, who at the time was the resident engineer at Studio One.

Under Bucknor's tutelage, McLeod learned the basics of record production, soon having success with late 1960s releases such as "Young Love" by Lloyd Clarke.

[1] In the mid-1970s, McLeod's boxing skills saw him employed by Joe Gibbs as a bouncer at the latter's recording studio on Retirement Crescent, also working on recording sessions with resident engineer Errol Thompson, with McLeod vocal sides from this era including "Money Worries", and his biggest hit, "By the Look", a version of the Dennis Brown hit, "Cheater".
