REGGAE:
THE STORY OF JAMAICAN MUSIC (PART ONE:
FORWARD MARCH)
DUBROOM (DUB) REGGAE VIDEO
REVIEW
WWW,
June 2008 - The first part of this
excellent series of documentaries by the BBC
takes us back to the 1960's and before,
providing tremendous insights into the birth
of the music that we like so much.
The UK based documentary deals with the early
1960's, when Jamaica "gained independence"
and SKA originated in the celebrations surrounding
the events. It doesn't take long before we are
introduced to a number of then contemporary
artists and go even further back in time to get
more knowledge and overstanding.
It's part of on an in-depth series of
documentaries that "inform, inspire and
enlight" as Mikey Dread used to say. A series
that tells the remarkable story of a remarkable
music created by a remarkable people.
In about an hour worth of sights and sounds, we
see countless artists, producers, and even
Jamaican politicians as they tells us how the
music originated back in the 1960's and before.
A must-see!
