[Music] International Reggae Day.

Considered by some music historians as the first Ska recording, moving on from Boogie and Shuffle...
Like most Jamaican record history it's open to debate!.

Yep, and bringing that right around, that Jackie Bernard track you posted has remarkable similarities to possible the first Reggae record to use the name?

This was apparently the original recording , they binned it to use the new word/craze that was gaining traction in Kingston at the time, the tape re-emerged and got released for RSD some years back causing me to queue at Resident for hours! ...
