A Jackie Mittoo Tribute

Live Reggae, , , , ,

To start your New Year’s right, it’s a live Jackie Mittoo tribute by Sly and Robbie, Ernest Ranglin and Tyrone Downie. This is how the masters of reggae do it – grovin’ mellow steady all the way.  Recorded live in the summer of 2012 at the Pori Jazz Festival in Finland. Kick back and enjoy!

Love and Devotion

Modern Reggae, , ,

Another breakup song but this time from Jimmy Riley with Sly & Robbie backing a simple, infectious rhythm, and there’s ultra-smooth background vocals too.  The dub version follows  – what’s not to love about that?
