30 - Reggae Lover Podcast - The Legendary TAXI Riddim Jul 30, 2015

Show notes

The TAXI riddim has been around for a long time, and it will never leave the dancehall. This riddim is foundation!! I kicked off this special mix with the Sister Nancy hit entitled One Two which was released around 1976 by producer Winston Riley on the Techniques label. There are a few earlier versions of Taxi, but once Sly and Robbie cut their version, the riddim really took off. You will hear 30 tracks in the mix, ranging from the 1980s to 2009. This unique mix was suggested by a subscriber. How does this compare to other Taxi riddim mixes you have heard?

22 - Reggae Lover Podcast - SuperCat takes Center Stage Jul 22, 2015

Show notes

Super Cat is a deejay who achieved widespread popularity during the late 1980s and early 1990s dancehall movement. His nickname, "Wild Apache", was given to him by his mentor Early B. He is the elder brother of reggae artist Junior Cat and is considered one of the greatest deejays within the Jamaican dance-hall scene to date. This is not a commercial mix so if your'e looking for collabos with Kriss Kross, Biggie Smalls, and 112 recorded after Cat was signed to Columbia Records, you are in the wrong place. This mix goes back to the roots in the Cockburn Pen / Seaview Gardens section of Kingston and tours through recordings produced by Steely & Clevie, King Jammy's, and his own Wild Apache Productions label. About an hour in length, here is the #ReggaeLover tribute to Super Cat, a major figure in the positive-consciousness dancehall movement.

He popularized the use of an instrument called the melodica.In his role as musician and producer he has helped to shape the reggae music genre. Show Notes Vocalist Jacob Miller, who was heavily influenced by Pablo, starts this episode off with "Baby I Love You So" followed by the dub version of said tune entitled "King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown." Both works can be found on the 'Easy Skanking' album. His album King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown (1976) is often regarded as one of the most important examples of dub.

16 - Reggae Lover Podcast - King Kong, Half Pint, Tenor Saw and Nitty Gritty Jul 22, 2015

Show notes

This was a listener requested mix consisting of the biggest tracks from 4 singers: King Kong, Half Pint, Tenor Saw and Nitty Gritty. Ray said he thought these artists sound alike and that called for a mix with their hits. King Kong, Nitty Gritty, Half Pint, Tenor Saw Their voices are easily distinguishable to my ear, but I agree that Tenor Saw and Nitty Gritty sang with a very similar and unique style. King Kong ended up copying that style of vocal delivery, but Half Pint carved out his own lane on the way to enormous success in the 1980s and 90s as a reggae crooner. RIP to Nitty Gritty and Tenor Saw whose lives were cut down way too early. This is a dedication to you and every reggae lover. Tracklist 1 Jah Jah Rule - King Kong 2 Message To All Beginners - Tenor Saw 3 Greetings - Half Pint 4 Roll Call - Tenor Saw 5 Lots of Sign - Tenor Saw 6 Run Come Call Me - Tenor Saw 7 Trouble Again - King Kong 8 Pumpkin Belly (Old Time Proverbs) - Tenor Saw 9 Run Down The World - Nitty Gritty 10 Mr. Landlord - Half Pint 11 One Big Family - Half Pint 12 Rub A Dub Market - Tenor Saw 13 Who Is Gonna Help Me Praise - Tenor Saw 14 Draw Mi Mark - Nitty Gritty 15 Soul Mate - Half Pint 16 Golden Hen - Tenor Saw 17 Champion Sound - King Kong 18 Ring The Alarm Quick - Tenor Saw / Buju Banton 19 False Alarm - Nitty Gritty 20 Good Morning Teacher - Nitty Gritty 21 Fever - Tenor Saw 22 Crazy Girl - Half Pint 23 Hog Inna Minty - Nitty Gritty 24 Zero Them Minds - Nitty Gritty 25 Substitute Lover - Half Pint 26 Shirley Jones - Tenor Saw 27 Winsone - Half Pint 28 We Run Things - Nitty Gritty 29 Where Is Your Culture - King Kong 30 No Work On Sunday - Tenor Saw 31 Stand Me Now - King Kong 32 Kill Dem Wid It - King Kong 33 My Sound Stands Alone - King Kong 34 Ready Done - Nitty Gritty
