Tune… long time we no have no nice time

Except for all the music to keep us sane 🎶

true true

Man, I've never heard any of his ska/rocksteady stuff. It's so dang charming

true wailers music

Richie Havens write this one?

Selecta, do you have any especially boss versions of small axe or top rankin?

small axe jamaican mix before chris blackwell production

I’m down when the vibe is right

MissyC 💃💃

I've got work to do

The Gladiators do a great cover of this

soul adventurer inded

bunny wailer as well

Ohhhh this one! This segment has some tracks i heard first on one of those many early collections titled "Soul Shakedown Party". Great memories. That low low keyboard note

What kind of keyboard is this????

Fabulous version

Pump organ beauty

Had to check to make sure memory was correct. Richie Havens did indeed write African Herbsman.

nice brian I gotta read up on that

One good thing about music when it hits you feel no pain

True that

Julia in the house !

Brian D was it originally Indian Rope Man?

Greetings Selecta and reggae massive ✌️

sweet life must be somewhere to be found

ossy greetings

Gimme that clavinette please Selecta!

the catch a fire album id for you brian d

what a vibe. unreal. so good.

bunny and peter what vocal backing

lost art in any music

So many instruments we just don't hear much of in today's music

the wailers were still hauling around the hammond B3 until wiya lindos passing

Especially these keys

Rastaman Chant my fave all 🔥🔥🔥

Familyman. Legend.

Ya! I'm a guitar player but i gotta give it up for the keyboards in this thing they call Reggae

And THE FAMILY MAN!!

Plenty o beers at the foot of the stairs still.. cooking up a big batch of chicken sausage stew as well!

someone big in reggae told me the reggae keyboard bubble is the key to the mix and those who cannot perfect it will be lost

I was a keyboard player in a rock band in my youth

Since we're sharing what we're cooking/eating too, I'm keeping it real with tomato pie

Hello, loving this! New listener here

Yes Iyah Francois

Possibly my favorite.

Greetings Francois!

welcome

Selecta J can you give us a hint who that someone big is?

Testify!

Since spotify pulled the original songs of freedom, I haven’t been able to hear the good good version of STIR IT UP. I can’t stand the cheesy 70’s version.

just say no to spotify

You can really hear the funk in this one

its a very uneven album but this version is fire

joe higgs in the band bunny bailed and went back to jamaica

They got thrown off the tour by sly and family stone and were stranded in california

Reggae history!

Request: punky reggae party

They don't teach you that in school

The half that's never been told

openend the show with nine minute version of punky reggae party sorry

Letssss GOOOOOO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Those Peter harmonies wow! So glad we have these sessions now for the birthday party!

This a fave

Oh yes this is fire

song is way to short

one of my top ten reggae complaints LOL

I know I already got my request but any room for Want More?

No extended version anywhere?

Sure I’ve heard a version with dub 🤔

Still everywhere is war sadly

Unfortunately Julia, especially in the now

Jerry, catch a fire is a better version, just not the one I’m lookin for.

Yes here we go turn it up loud

Thanks Julia! Gotta hear this one. Outta tha yown...

trombone

Short songs complaint.... hmm do i smell an extended dub 12 mix show in the future?

who feels it knows it

I'll second that Brian D

Can’t run away from yourself

Can't rub a dub away from yourself

So be careful what you do

Started as Julia's same lyric quote ha but i went with the typo i started

You not change it

Rub a dub all good

Everyone loves this song
