Reggae - A daily blog

You & Me on a Jamboree! Music blog

June 22nd 2007 04:57
This "blog" doesn't really need any more plugs. It is very popular, for the reason that it provides downloads of a huge amount of music. Whether or not you believe in the downloading of music, there is no doubt this is a celebration of early Jamaican music.

Most people who download from this site would also purchase music of the same genre, but if you just can't get enough JA music, more than your budget allows for, then this is a good place to go.

Some of the albums are pretty token and easily available, but others are a little harder to track down. There is predominantly ska, reggae and rocksteady, but you will also find some northern soul, calypso, dub, roots and calypso. For instance who would have guessed the great Robert Mitchum would have liked Calypso enough to have his own album (see below).

Indeed. I liked him as Phillip Marlowe. Very much overshadowed these days by Humphrey Bogart in the role.

Yeah he did alright as Marlowe in Michael Winner's Big Sleep remake, Out of The Past still stands out for me as his best noir though.

I loved him in Night of The Hunter and Cape Fear .

Friends of Eddie Coyle and the Yakuza are way up there too.

I have a great CD for you to check out! It's called Above the Bones and it's by the artist Mishka.

He's got a really smooth sound and he's got lots of soul...the CD is a great play for summer.
