Hello Bovine Ska and Rocksteady listeners,
We started off this week’s Bovine Ska with two sets of rare rare ska, beginning with the Maytals 1966 cut for Ronnie Nasralla’s Gala Label, “Please Don’t Leave Me.” We then jumped into our mento set, and then a long set of cool rocksteady, which included Jeanette Simpson’s beautiful 1968 song, “The Rain.” before giving you the reggae sounds of Joe Gibbs and Lee “Scratch” Perry’s short-lived but significant, REFLECTIONS LABEL. We think you’ll like this spotlight of inventively produced cuts from 1973-75 from Nicky Thomas, Gregory Issacs, Jacob Miller and Time Unlimited! We’ll be back next week as always. XO Generoso and Lily
