As the number of episodes in the House of Reggae
grow, it becomes clear just what a priceless
series of Podcast we are really reviewing here:
it's the History of Reggae all over and over
again, in Word Sound and Power.
This history is important for too many reasons
to mention. Just look at the enormous achievements
of the Jamaicans we know to be the originators of
Reggae, it's enough to realize how much we need
historians like Bredda Ian who doesn't just play
music, but actually does a lot of work for his
shows, which... shows.
The 18th episode has, next to a short but
impressive biography of Garnett Silk right at the
start, also some rare material that will make you
want to check out the Podcast just to listen to
it. Sugar Minott coming in a DJ Style under the
name "Papa Honey", for example.
Another crucial!
