Roots Archives Forum

Hi, new site workout looking good roots Archives, been coming here for years to check on my finds and work out what other Lps by Early B i need to find etc etc.

For those that don't know me, i've been involved particularly in the UK revival scene for a number of years and put together a monthly show hosted on Podomatic, Bigmikeydread Reggae Radio (links to the latest show below), I recently compiled a double cd of Mento (Jamaican Calypso) for Fantastic Voyage record label and love writing about and thinking about the history of music in general, but paritcularly Jamaican music and more recently early Rhythm and Blues of the Roy Brown vein.. If you haven't ever listened to my show, give it a go.. tah
