CaribWorldNews, LOS ANGELES, CA, Weds. Mar. 10, 2010: With just five days to go before he is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, Jamaican Grammy-winning musician and actor, Jimmy Cliff as released a new EP exclusively on the iTunes Store and announced the kick-off of a U.S. tour.

Cliff`s new download-only EP, `You Can Get It If You Really Want,` features previously unreleased mixes such as Jimmy Cliff`s version of the Cat Stevens classic `Wild World` and `Sitting In Limbo,` and a film tribute to the director of The Harder They Come.

Cliff starred in the movie that introduced reggae to the world. The Jamaican singer, since that movie, has been an inspiration and influence for an eclectic mix of artists over the years - from Bruce Springsteen to Joe Cocker, Paul Simon to The Clash.

He will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 15, 2010. Wyclef Jean will induct Cliff, who is also scheduled to perform that evening.  The ceremony will air live on Fuse TV.

Cliff returns to his most extensive North American tour in over twenty years from June 11 at the Wolf Trap in Vienna, VA. The tour will include stops at Bonnaroo`s main stage, Toronto`s Massey Hall, and the Hollywood Bowl among other venues. 

Cliff is the only living musician to receive Jamaica`s Order of Merit, the country`s highest honor for achievement in the arts & sciences.  In 2007, he was also honored with a doctorate from The University of the West Indies.  In a career that spans nearly fifty years, he has sold more than twenty million albums, with over twenty-five releases to his credit.  He has appeared in several films including, most famously, `The Harder They Come,` whose impact on reggae and pop music in general can scarcely be overstated.  He has collaborated with countless other legends including The Rolling Stones Elvis Costello, Joe Strummer and Annie Lennox.  Bob Dylan has called Cliff`s `Vietnam` the best protest song he ever heard, and a short list of artists who have covered Cliff`s compositions ranges from Willie Nelson and Cher, to New Order and Fiona Apple.
