Desmond williams for the trees delights of the garden
Delights of the Garden is the 2002 debut album by Desmond Williams. On his first full album, Williams delves further into his Jamaican roots, tinging the electronica sound of his music with the dub stylings of that nation. However, he also shifts through other styles, such as bossa nova, soul, and drum & bass.
