MYSTERY BABYLON (199)

"MYSTERY BABYLON (199)" (WEBMASTER'S COLUMN)

WWW, December 9 2008 - As I am Stepping out of the Babylon that is the "Christian Reggae Scene" which later became the "Gospel Reggae Industry", I am applying mechanisms which can be used whenever one has to Step Out Of Babylon.

I realized who I am, and I started to speak the Truth. Two steps.

My third step was to not bow down for any pressure from any side. As I got attacked in almost every possible way, I got rejected by a lot of people too.

My fourth step?

Well, I haven't figured that one out yet. But I did try to share with you a little bit of what I have come across in my life and research about this Big Mystery.

More Tomorrow...

One Love, Give Thanks,

Looking for high quality, top mastered live recordings? Skip this one. In all other cases: download this historical recording of Mikal Rose, Puma Jones and Duckie Simpson as they sing over Sly and Robbie's hard hitting drum and basslines.

Hear Mikal Rose interact with the audience, Sly and Robbie backing him up as he sings one tune after the next with Puma and Duckie on backing vocals. Listen to long DUB parts long before Live Dubbing was attempted by others.

Essential!

BLACK UHURU - BULL IN THE PEN
DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW



WWW, November 2008 - In this video, we meet Black Uhuru with Sly and Robbie and a whole lot of other musicians in the studio. The vibe of the 1980's is perfectly captured, where the music could have been played today as well.

Sly and Robbie have been using their cooperation with the vocal group Black Uhuru to produce some of the most progressive Reggae at the time. It captured the vibe of the time, just like Burning Spear and Bob Marley had done before, which led them to introduce Reggae to a new audience.

When they produced "Bull In The Pen", Sly Dunbar was heavily involved in the digital drum kit, which he used in ways nobody had done before. We see him playing along with Robbie Shakespeare and a lot of other crucial musicians.

Niceness!
