Description

An ephemeral but irresistible trend, rocksteady inevitably seduces with its character, richly embellished by the gems of American soul. A hinge between the danceable hymns of ska and the imperial offbeats of reggae, this genre naturally values melodies but was also one of the first island forms to be exported, via the productions of Duke Reid and the Trojan label. Recorded in 1992, the present musical reunion brings this brilliant story back to center stage. The biggest stars of the genre are invited, such as Ken Boothe and his “Say You,” and even the Melodians with the harmonious “Sweet Sensation.” Leader of the Paragons in the second part of the sixties, John Holt revisits "Wear You To The Ball," one of the hits of the Jamaican vocal trio, before this composition is revisited by the master U-Roy. And the Techniques confirm the musical filiation mentioned above, thanks to a sumptuous adaptation of "Minstrel And Queen" by Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions. Presented by the charismatic Dennis Brown, this singing tour reveals above all a style with an assumed modernity as evidenced in "Feel Like Jumping," a title recorded by Marcia Griffiths just before her career with Bob Marley.
