Generally i listen to the podcasts several times before making any comments however on this occasion,this one was so enlightening ,fresh, something had to be written.
Firstly the songs,all brillint tunes,well produced,progression yet still identifying with the feel of great regga music,more evolotionary than revolutionary,not every one can has to be a Scratch Perry.
What was so brilliant about it is the fact .it is all about the music,the way he wanted to move foward with his own conviction,yet true to the great reggae tradition,showing grest respect to great old influential men of the music.( the Dodds, Rieds,Gibbs,Ellis etc.
These guys are the Scientist of reggae music,they have a feel for the music ,they do’nt follow fashion,but possible trend setters,yet not glory seekers.
Another brilliant pod keep them coming God bless.
