[Music] International Reggae Day.

[1066familyman]

Apparently this is a thing. So in the spirit of these things, since I missed out on International Tuba Day, here's your chance to post your favourite Reggae tunes to mark the occasion.

Given the theme is apparently 80's /90's influential dancehall, I'll kick off with this classic. Ticking all the right boxes:

Year: 1985.
Producer/label: Jammy's.
Riddim: Sleng Teng.

 

[Jesus Gul]

What a riddim that is…

Picked this gem up from record fair in Haywards Heath today...

Stumbled on this on Discogs t'other day , now winging it's way into the record box..

I could probably spend the evening on 80's/ 90's dancehall, so instead I'll come in early with a different version I only heard recently of a 70's Junior Byles classic. Not forgetting that there's already untold versions of Curly Locks anyway!

A £2 gamble on discogs ... Hopefully only the label that's fekd - working on the principle that 12" grooves are fairly bullet proof ..

 

[Jack Straw]

Sorry if this out of the time slot, but I love this;

No time slot Jack, you post away from any era!

I was hoping you'd join in with this thread.

And if we're talking, Feeling Soul, then we must remember the great Bob Andy. What a song writer he was!....

Earlier this year I was asked to ' do something ' with a massive stack of reggae, soul and some rock records by a couple of recently deceased friends families ,after much filtering out dross straight to charity shops, I struck a deal with my local friendly record dealer who bought most of the rest for a decent amount ( that went to McMillan cancer charity) but not interested in the 12" singles . .... Including this little beaut!.
