100% Dynamite: Ska Soul Rocksteady Funk & Dub in Jamaica

#1

Mensagem por skip »



100% Dynamite explores the links between Reggae, Jazz, Funk and Soul. Where Nu Yorica and Chicano Power focusses on Latin music, Soul Jazz Record's new compilation 100% Dynamite does the same for Reggae. The album is jam-packed with Reggae tunes that have crossed-over and become cult dancefloor hits in clubland such as "Greedy G", "Rocksteady" and "Granny Scratch Scratch".

Fourteen tracks of music that show the influence that American Jazz, Funk and Soul music has had on Jamaican Reggae. The proximity of the West Indies to the USA meant that many Jamaican musicians would continue to be influenced by American styles of music whilst at the same time continuing to define new styles of their own such as Ska, Rocksteady and Dub.

100% Dynamite features come serious Jamaican funk by Jackie Mittoo, The Brentford All-Stars, The Upsetters and Toots & The Maytals, the cream of Jamaica's jazz musicians such as Tommy McCook, Cedric Brooks and Lennie Hibbert and also features revolutionary tunes such as "Armageddon Time", "Drum Song" and "Cuss Cuss", songs which helped define a unique sound for Jamaican music in the sixties and seventies.

100% Dynamite is also the name of a club Soul Jazz Records have been running for the past year and this has been the inspiration for this album of the same name. Collected here are fourteen killer tracks that have rocked the crowd!

1. Willie Williams - Armageddon Time
2. The Maytals - Night & Day
3. The Marvels - Rock Steady
4. The Upsetters - Popcorn
5. Tommy Mccook - Green Mango
6. Brentford Allstars - Greedy G
7. Lennie Hibbert - Real Hot
8. Johnny Osbourne - We Need Love
9. Jackie Mittoo - Stereo Freeze
10. Cedric Im Brooks - Give Rasta Glory
11. Sound Dimension - Granny Scratch Scratch
12. Phiyllis Dillon - Woman Of The Ghetto
13. Lloyd Robinson - Cuss Cuss
14. Sound Dimension - Drum Song
