#62 - Alton Ellis Tribute Part 1

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 21:02:52 +0000

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.

#61 - Hip-Hop Reggae Part 2

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 02:38:00 +0000

This show was a blast to record. My mind raced back to the days of going to college in Boston, where I did a lot of walking and listening to music. I remember walking to an arcade near the Arlington T stop and playing some pinball between classes, then stopping at the mall at Copley and buying Heavy D’s Peaceful Journey CD. Then I’d walk across the street and wait for my train at South Station while I listened to my music with oversized Sony headphones so I could get the best bass and overall sound quality. I remember dancing solo at a Cambridge club to the hot combination tune of the day, “The Jam” by Shabba Ranks & KRS-1, and having a girl approach me to tell me she liked the way I move. What are your memories as you listen to #61? Reply and comment as you listen or when you get back to your computer.

#60 - Hip-Hop Reggae Part 1

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 17:22:24 +0000

Toward the end of my high school years, I would listen to WERS 88.9 FM’s nightly reggae show, “Rockers.” I’d also listen to parts of their “urban” format show, “Eighty-Eight Nine at Night,” where the student DJs would play hip-hop, R&B, and house music. Listening to that show was a great opportunity to experience the crossover that was happening between reggae and hip-hop. This episode of Reggae Rhythm Update is the first part in a series of three that will chronicle that crossover sound. You’ll hear the music that influenced me as I was exploring my favorite reggae sounds and artists.

#59 - Can’t Stop the Dance

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 16:26:24 +0000

I arranged a CD trade to obtain this out-of-print gem, “Can’t Stop the Dance” by Yardcore Collective, and you’ll hear all 26+ minutes of it this show. “Can’t Stop the Dance” is a 1994 megamix, produced by Handel Tucker, Maureen Sheridan, and Sly Dunbar that features Junior Reid, Buju Banton, Snow, Jack Radics, Junior Tucker, General Degree, Wayne Wonder, Papa San, Tony Rebel, Chevelle Franklin, Nikki Tucker, Little Lenny, Anthony Red Rose, Carlene Davis, Bunny Rugs, Ibo Cooper, Diana King, Stanryck, Daddy Lizard, and others. I used to play it during my college years at WERS 88.9 in Boston and now I can finally play it for you.

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 00:31:34 +0000

Part two of the “Cherry oh Baby” rhythm update. This episode was a blast to record because I felt so comfortable with the early ’90s stuff. That’s the time when I was most actively going to sound system dances and stage shows in Boston. Hearing version after version of digital rhythms sounded so good. I hope you enjoy the little sequence I put together for you here. I’m issuing a parental warning for the lyrical content of Junior Demus’ “Wicked.”

On this program, you’ll hear an interview with acton/singer Leon, who has starred and co-starred in films including Cool Runnings, The Five Heartbeats, Cliffhanger, Above the Rim, and Waiting To Exhale, among many others. I think I first noticed Leon through his appearance in Madonna’s controversial “Like a Prayer” music video in 1989. During this interview, Leon spoke to me about his current CD, The Road Less Traveled, and plans for the music on his next album. We talked growing up with Rasta friends in New York, spending time in Jamaica, his musical influences, Beres Hammond producing his first song, and catering to his female fans.

#51 - Fathers of Reggae Part 2

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 04:02:10 +0000

On this episode, I honor more of reggae’s founding fathers. After listening back to the show, I realized I made a mistake regarding an engineer on the Abyssinians - Satta Massagana album. I said Clive Chin but the correct name is Clive Hunt. If you missed Fathers of Reggae Part 1, please check episode #36 for a show featuring Gregory Isaacs, Bob Marley, and Freddie McGregor.

#50 - A Fool

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Wed, 28 May 2008 01:13:11 +0000

Reggae Rhythm Update reaches a small milestone with 50 episodes. First up is one of my favorite rhythms, Alton Ellis’ precious and short, “A Fool.” After that, it’s another version excursion with Otis Gayle’s version of the Spinners’ “I’ll Be Around.” Both of these are Studio One rhythms. One correction: At the 1:42 mark I say, “90 minutes of Studio One brilliance.” I meant to say “90 seconds…” in reference to the very short Alton Ellis track that is about to end.

Alton Ellis - A Fool
Tony Tuff - Try a Little Thing
Carlton Livingston - Class of ‘69
Papa Tullo - To You 12″
Leroy Mafia - I’m in the Mood

Kingston’s entrance is quite a production, with the music, the lights, and the huge Jamaican flag lit up across the stage. Next up is a great, high-energy Morgan Heritage song, “Raid Rootz Dance” which borrows from Steel Pulse. Later on in the show, it’s the “Baltimore” rhythm. Next show is the fiftieth!

#48 - Well Pleased

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 03:54:03 +0000

This all instrumental show begins at the foundation, with the immortal Studio One rhythm, “Rockfort Rock.” After that it’s all ’70s instrumentals, some of them dread, funky, and soulful like Negril’s “Rasta,” and some of them sugary sweet like Familyman’s “Well Pleased” and Jackie Mittoo’s “Ram Jam.” Listen to the horn, keyboard, and guitar leads while moving to the rhythm section. Back then, it took a great band to make a great song.

#47 - Half Pint Interview and Feature

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 03:42:40 +0000

One of the great things about doing this show is that I get to speak to some of my musical heroes. Half Pint is one of those artists that I discovered while doing my radio show at Emerson College in Boston. Starting one night, young ladies would call and request his new song at the time, “Substitute Lover.” That song turned out to be one of my all-time favorites, along with “Level the Vibes,” with which I’d open my show week after week. With last night’s performance in Los Angeles, Half Pint began his U.S. tour. Visit his web site for the latest tour updates. I spoke to him over the phone from his hotel room. I think you’re going to love what he says about his musical mission to uplift people. Plus you’ll hear some great stories about the musical climate in Jamaica during the ’60s, big labels like Studio One and Treasure Isle, the rhythm duo of Sly & Robbie, and much more. Due to a recent tweak of the Golden Touch studio, the sound quality has improved so you will hear the artist clearly. In other news, Reggae Rhythm Update has new Facebook and Twitter pages.

Half Pint - Level the Vibes
Half Pint - Days I Can’t Forget
Half Pint - Sally
Half Pint - Sally Dub
Half Pint - Winsome
Half Pint - Greetings

#44 - Mikey Dread Tribute

joshuab@rhythmupdate.com (Joshua B) — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 18:48:40 +0000

During the late 1970s, Mikey “Dread” Campbell was a radio disc jockey on JBC radio when it was uncommon for Jamaican radio to broadcast reggae music. On his “Dread at the Controls” show, he played current popular music while displaying his musical knowledge by dropping in Studio One originals to show the history of the music. His first recorded single was also called “Dread at the Control,” and guess what he called his record label. He produced some of the most exciting contemporary music of the late ’70s and early ’80s, and his dub sides were very popular. On this program, you’ll hear Mikey Dread’s radio background come through is his music. Mikey Dread was just 54 years old when he passed away. He died 6 months after he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. On #44, I pay tribute to the rub-a-dub master.
