The weather'll soon get warmer, so let's have 'em- plus rocksteady, ska, whatever you want or like.

lol.... he's quite happy with himself for his little freestyle at the end...good tune, great performance.... love to see the rest of that concert.

I'm pretty scratchy on reggae, dub and all that....so i'll have to pitch in a well worn classic...but i reckon this is a great dub, always gives me head spins.

The clip is from the famous One Love Concert in 78, off the Heartland Reggae video. Way before I was born (83), but my dad had the single for years.

You've got to love Miller's attitude.

Great stuff, especially Stoner blue and Northern Boy. CLint Eastwoood and General Saint's Stop That Train is a classic, reminds me of The Venue back in the late 80s. The Greensleeves Sampler vol 1 was one of the greatest compilations of all time.
Anyone here like the film Rockers, featuring loads of old reggae stars as Horsemouth the drummer tries to get his stolen motorbike back?
The scene when him and Dj Dirty Harry storm the DJ box in the tourist club, because they are playing disco rather than reggae, is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
"Get out, man. This is a takeover!"
