Welcome aboard for another hour of fine Jamaican music where today I’m paying tribute to some recently fallen legends. As sadly in recent weeks, the rocksteady pioneer Hopeton Lewis, the Kingstonian sufferer Jackie Bernard, the ubiquitous percussionist Uzziah ‘Sticky’ Thompson and the dancehall guitarist Noel ‘Sowell Radics’ Bailey, have all passed away. So over the next 60 minutes I’ll be paying my own small homage to all 4 of these exemplary contributors to the music we call reggae… Hopeton Lewis – Take It Easy
Josey Wales – Ready Fi Josey
The Kingstonians – Winey Winey
The Skatalites – Guns Of Navarone
The Upsetters ft. Cool Sticky – Dry Acid
Hopeton Lewis – Cool Collie
N Elliot & N Bailey – Morning Star
Sowell Radics – Fight Fight Fight
The Kingstonians – Sufferer
Jackie Bernard – Jah Jah Way
Hopeton Lewis & Glen Brown – Skinny Leg Girl
Hopeton Lewis & U Roy – Tom Drunk
Culture – Natty Never Get Weary
The Congos – Solid Foundation Log on to www.reggaeworldmusic.com every Friday between 8 – 10pm UK time to hear the House of Reggae live. Thanks, Ian
