I've been having a reggae day today so I thought I would revisit this thread. I've enjoyed the songs posted. Trouble is I can't remember if these have been posted by me or others before and I have not been all the way thru the thread. sorry if its duplicates
Cracking version of Jonny B Goode
Pretty sure I posted Beres Hammond "rockaway" before - its so nostalgic but I love it so its gets posted again
Lovely sleazy late night feel to this - and loads of memories for me

not big heavy but popped up on a documentary on the Cov music scene and, well, I like it.
Seems like the appropriate thread for this. New Lee Scratch Perry out today. On Tricky's False Idols label. Some of it a bit over-produced, but some nice stuff on there.
"...closing track ‘Goodbye’ was Perry’s last ever recorded vocal performance."

I was starting to move the living room about last couple days including the records from their cupboard.
Inevitably, that ended as not much moving and lots of pulling records out and listening to them... had completely forgotten about Misty In Roots - enjoyed "Live at the Counter Eurovision" and "Wise and Foolish" LP's.
Apologies if this is already on here
No idea if it's heavy, or if it's roots but it is reggae and I'm loving listening to '10 foot ganja plant'.
Saw this guy last week. Very very good vocalist. A lil bit Chronnixy.
Also Kabaka Pyramid getting some plays too.
The Hempolics
Somehow, part of me isn’t surprised about the number of tracks that have aroused the ire of the Copyright Police and YouTube algorithms.
Quite liking this from Nubya Garcia with a dub sound to it.
Wicked Queen Omega tune
Cheers Kayak. I've put links up before no drama but for some reason, it didn't work today.
There's also a remix version which has Snoop Dog sample
Macka B is worth a listen to, too.
With YouTube videos, you don't post it as a link. Just paste the address into the reply box, hit submit and it appears.
When you hit the link button, it'll appear as just that, a link, of text only .
RIP Sly Dunbar. Died at age 73
The Sly and Robbie album A Dub Experience is kind of what got me into dub and roots reggae as a yoot.
I remember completely spinning out to the crazy sounds and rhythm of this album with friends and a few joints in my teens. Good times.
Re Sly Dunbar it was the early Black Uhuru albums that did it for me
This is great 😊
Eek a Mouse live
He was explaining how he got his name. To be honest I'm still none the wiser 😂
Had a Reggae heavy playlist at Rock and Roll Brewhouse Bar in Brum on Friday,Prince Far-I Under Heavy Manners and Sly and Robbie Master of Ceremony Dub were outstanding. Also had Natty Dread by Bob and The Wailers ,also Marcia Griffiths Play Me Sweet and Nice.
Mdou Moctar Ilana The Creator and Isaac Hayes Hot Buttered Soul also featured.
Here's a decent Spotify playlist I made too:
