#66 – Barack Obama
Work and a generally busy life kept me away again, but tonight, on a snowy weekend in Massachusetts, I found a couple hours to prepare a show, record it, and post it. As usual, it was fun to record. I hope you have fun listening!

This is the third and final part of the Hip-Hop Reggae series. If you like what you hear, 
The second of a two part tribute to the late Alton Ellis. This episode focuses on his output from 1973 to current and includes a lot of his UK productions–some self-produced and some recorded for other labels.
On October 11, Alton Ellis passed away. He was 70 years old. His first recorded song was “Muriel” in 1959 with Eddie Perkins. He continued to record and perform right into August of this year. Alton is best-known for the music he sang from 1966-1968, when Jamaican popular music was known as rock steady. I consider rock steady music to be some of the classiest and most dignified music around, and Alton seemed to keep that rock steady performance style throughout his entire singing career.
