RIP Toots Hibbert gently caress!!! This hurts!!! I really don't get upset at old musicians dying but legit emotional here. I play his music every evening when I bathe my baby, it's his bedtime music. gently caress, I just wanted him to live forever. He toured like hundreds of dates a year for like 60 years. He invented the word "REGGAE" ffs. Here he is singing a song everybody should have playing at their wedding, a scene from "The Harder They Come" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErQ2UB44k-o the only guy I've ever seen who rivals James Brown live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrdvtvoDjYE full show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EStJv_wsrdg great album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3Mw1yOJn1Q whatever just look him up he doesn't miss |

I've been reviewing City of Glompton's YouTube mix of this thread and I have to say it might be the most chill rear end comprehensive YouTube link I've ever used

Slush Garbo posted:Dope, thanks for the reminder and thank you CoG! Me too, after a marathon of Toots today I had to restore some cheer with some incredibly catchy comedic Pluto songs. I posted "Dat" before, Pluto just had some uncanny ability to make really melodically enjoyable songs that also happen to be really witty and funny lyrically. I'd listen to them if they were about some boring poo poo, but the lyrics are great too. a tale of eating undercooked goat's head stew after the goat gets creamed by a bus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGtStkmZv8A 1975 version of "trapped in the closet", only wittingly funny rather than unwittingly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRWzk1w3dJg |

Normally youtube recommendations are total doggshit but it did throw me this 2 hour tribute mix of Toots & the Maytals - a primer for the unfamiliar, tastefully DJed by a hip-hop guy Skratch Bastid. Put this on while you're cooking or something and take it easy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7e7qDCYE4k |

I heard a cool remix of this song last night so this morning I looked up the original and I gotta say, it kicks pretty hard. Nice use of the Sister Nancy sample. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBMmCTuxBO4 |

fatboy slim was in a band before he was huge, it was called beats international and it sucked, but what was funny was on the CD i bought (.99) two out of the like nine songs sampled the sister nancy "bam bam" horn riff. real sampling faux pas if you ask me. and they weren't like hidden or minor uses of it, both were pretty key. they weren't even far apart on the track list!! like 2 other songs between them tops. fatboy slim is lazy |

we going dancehall? I first heard chi ching ching after reading a thread on a music forum about "child friendly" dancehall i.e. not about killing batty boy, or indeed even killing soundboy. His songs are catchy as hell https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGdtxQM8TuI pro youtube comment: "how many breadfruits were injured during the making of this video?.. now me distraught and hungry lol" |
