Studio One Roots? This can mean different things
for real.
What we have come to know as Roots Music, was
obviously played by musicians who themselves had
Roots as well. It's a matter of fact, that most
Originators of Reggae somehow started off their
musical path in Sir Coxsone's Studio, which would
explain the title.
The music itself, obviously is Roots Music avant
la lettre. Studio One was there before all
these other Reggae Studios for the simple reason
that Sir Coxsone Dodd was already running an
established studio in Jamaica when Reggae was not
even there.
The podcast doesn't go back that far in time,
though.
There are some remarkable Dub Versions, nice DJ
Toasting by U Roy and others, a heartical Burning
Spear track that not many Spear fans may have
heard before, and these are just a few highlights.
53 minutes of pure niceness!
