Ghetto Palms: Tempa and Tropical
The Fader Magazine (Free subscription) | 03/19/2008
First off, one minor correction from last week: Selector JD from Deadly Dragon correctly and annoyingly pointed out that the Stone Love throwback riddim that I listed as “I Do Love You”--after the Heptones classic Shinehead covers on his white label version--is actually “Rocksteady,” originally by Alton Ellis.

RIP, Joe Gibbs
Afrobella (Free subscription) | 02/26/2008
By now my adoration of Seventies reggae is apparent to anyone who’s been reading this blog for a while, so allow me to bid a fond farewell to a master of the genre. Record producer Joe Gibbs passed away last Thursday. Lee Perry, Niney the Observer, Beres Hammond, The Heptones, The Ethiopians, Jacob Miller, and [...]

But the real gems are from some of the more obscure artists: the great 12′ mix of “I’m Still In Love” from Marcia Aitken, a reggae take on the R&B classic “Fever” from Junior Byles and the lead track “Dread Are The Controller” (by Lival Thompson) should...

Zulya and the Children of the Underground by Dean Jackson Going on a short weekend vacation at 10AM and it's already 3AM here and I need some sleep, so here are 2 faves from the last months. First, a smoky roots reggae/dub hit from 70’s Jamaica, remastered this year by Wackies. Bullwackies All-Stars’ Free for All is the title track and it was out on The Heptones’ Hepic label back in the day....
