... in 1976 when The Reading Rock Festival decided to include a Reggae night with the legendary U-Roy, The Mighty Diamonds and The Revolutionaires. I personally believe Glastonbury would have needed a very big attraction on the scale of U2, Radiohead or Coldplay to sell out tickets for this year’s event in anywhere near the record breaking time. Maybe this will stop the so-called ‘ethical hippy’ promoters...

... that this type of sounds retard the development of JA music.Deejay records did not begin with U Roy and do not end with Big Youth. The roots of deejay music are buried in the excitement of the Ska music era. Those were the days of the dancers, primarily the shufflers. Ska music saw the birth of the deejay. U Roy brought deejay music in the beginning of its prime and nowadays it's accepted, taken...

I was going to write a flippant (hopefully funny) post about the IPL's imported cheerleaders, and about cheerleading in general. But I’ve read far too many Funny Posts (and articles) about them now, and pretty much everyone who wrote one has come off sounding like an asshat. U. Roy illustrates this in a Hindustan Times column about how cheerleaders should expect lewd remarks from crowds because

"Like many longtime clerks, Mr. Allen is frighteningly knowledgeable. Testing out a random single on the store turntable, he discerned in a few seconds that it had the wrong label: it wasn’t 'Good Morning Dub,' he said, but rather U-Roy’s 'Music Addict,' from around 1987, itself a response to Horace Ferguson’s 'Sensi Addict.' That earned him a quick sale, and later research confirmed that he was right...

After the first invasion in the early 1970's of recording deejays U Roy, King Stitt, Dennis Alcapone, Samuel the First and Winston Scotland, amongst others, a second wave was slowly coming up making their names in Jamaican dancehalls; Dillinger, Prince Jazzbo, I Roy, Hugh Roy Jr, Lloyd Young, Ramon, and a young man who was to become a household name for the remainder of the decade, Tapper Zukie.

Well, well, well. Seems like somebody thinks they're all that and a bag of chips. Seems as though a certain Quibian Salazar-Moreno hit the nail right on the head by guessing correctly last week's sample . Yes, QSM, it was U Roy 's "Tom Drunk" which was sampled by DJ Hi-Tek for "Fortified Live" which featured Talib Kweli , Mos Def and Mr. Man . Good job! And please be aware that since SoulBounce is...

THIS IS MUSIC!!!!!!! Joe Higgs in 'Roots,Rock,Reggae' inside the Jamaican music scene. A great DVD to own and a heart-wrenching snippet here. Fans of 1970s reggae are sure to rejoice at the chance to hear Jimmy Cliff and Joe Higgs talk about their music, to see hyperkinetic producer-musician Lee "Scratch" Perry at work in his legendary Black Ark studio (with Junior Murvin, the Heptones, and the Upsetters),...
