Audio (Reggae): Thread for all things reggae

[zefarelly]

Polished version, but gold none the less. And a great album, for those of us who just had Trojan albums because we spent all our money on soul, scooters and bass guitars!

Revelation or Jahrevelationmuzic are the London 12 Tribes of Israel SoundSystem. They were quite influential with our Sound KingTafariLove whether with advice, performances, or building our speakers. Trooper is on VibesFM also in London. Think he may still be doing stuff at Volks in Brighton

Seems the appropriate thread for this:

https://www.attenboroughcentre.com/events/3347/cinema-club-rudeboy

A pay what you want screening (in Falmer) of Rudeboy; a documentary about the legendary Trojan Records. Here's the blurb:

A film about the love affair between Jamaican and British Youth culture told through the prism of one the most iconic record labels in history, TROJAN RECORDS.

Combining archive footage, interview and drama - RUDEBOY tells the story of Trojan Records by placing it at the heart of a cultural revolution that unfolded in the council estates and dancefloors of late 60’s and early 70’ Britain and how that period of immigration and innovation transformed popular music and culture.

Told by a cast of legendary artists including Lee ‘Scratch' Perry, Toots Hibbert, Ken Boothe, Neville Staple, Marcia Griffiths, Dave Barker, Dandy Livingstone, Lloyd Coxsone, Pauline Black, Derrick Morgan and more.

That looks good, shame I'm in the studio recording all weekend!

 

[Jack Straw]

This Friday on BBC 4 starting at 9.30 pm are three Reggae Programmes.
Looking forwards to these.

 

[Jack Straw]

The above-mentioned are on tonight.

Very shocked to hear that Vaughn Benjamin (Midnite/Akae Beka) has passed away.
Way too young. Inspirational roots singer.

The second half of this reminded me of the excellent Dub Disco LP's he did.
