Hello Bovine Ska and Rocksteady listeners!
First, we just wanted to thank everyone who wished Generoso and Happy Birthday last week. This week, it’s back to the our normal format as we begin with two sets of ska, starting with a wonderful mid-tempo ska from Studio One in 1966 with The Ethiopians doing “Love and Pity.” After the two sets of ska, we put on a bouncy mento set starting with The Wrigglers from 1958 and “Boo Boo Man.” A long set of rocksteady followed, and then our label spotlight of Errol Dunkley’s Silver Ring Label with top reggaes from 1972-75 from King Smiley, Vin Gordon, and Dunkley himself! Please add our show to your playlist here on Mixcloud and share it wherever you see fit. We’ll be back next week with Generoso’s birthday show. XO Generoso and Lily
