How the hell does the drat reggae thread generate the most reports in all of byob??

I have no plans to kill this thread, no worries, just keep posting reggae and have fun itt, just don't kill each other over music opinions. :v:

We gonna try this once again, just ignore bad posts from before and don't throw accusations against anyone, post music and talk about music. That includes not continuing a derail from days ago in your own defense, Slush.
I don't want to throw anyone out of the reggae thread of all places, but I will. That goes for everyone being mean over opinions here, so drop it and post good music.

I like The Aggrolites a lot, "Dirty" (but not in the slackness way) Reggae. This is a fun one

Love the organ in this one

This is a good thread even with the 311 beef lol
Hell yeah!
Roger Rivas, the Aggrolites' organist, does great instrumental stuff solo. I prefer it to the band actually because the vocals take me out of the time and place they're evoking too much. I mean I like what they're doing too but yeah, this scratches my itch. Winston Wright/Jackie Mittoo for the 21st century.

Also his personal style is 100% OG loc rocking cholo:

shown here vibing on Toots' "Time Tough" instrumental like it's no big deal. His website used to have loads of this kind of thing, these free downloads called "Organ Versions" I think, like two albums of him organing it up over vintage B-side instrumentals that are so common on old JA 45's. Check that poo poo out!!! It sounds so loving authentically late 60s I couldn't believe it when first heard it.

this thread started one hot summer day when I was high as poo poo and sippin that pineapple juice like u do when it's hot. I remembered how much I loved hearing my radiodread record before my mixer died. I missed it so I made this thread.

my threads tend to last two weeks at best. This one has been thriving 4 like maybe five months now because ppl keep showing up. I never expected that.

This is a fine post. I didn't know anything about this guy and the organ has always to me been one of the reasons I was drawn to the Aggrolites. Thanks for sharing and back atcha with my favorite Eek A Mouse joint

Saw Eek A Mouse back in the 90s, as well as a lesser known African Reggae Artist Lucky Dube, who sadly has passed.

September 8, 1969... we all remember it from our school days. A day that will live on forever. No more pounds, shillings, florins (?), crowns, farthings, writing the letter "d" to indicate "pence" for some goddam reason, etc. in JA! Just dollars and cents! Decimal day in JA, a time to rejoice with organ based rocksteady.

I have a cute ska moment here, I was listening to a new-retro ska release and the reviewer mentioned this fun track on there, "Miss Aranivah" is a tribute to a dancer by the same name. I found her on youtube - she does old-school ska/reggae dancing tutorials and stuff - dancing to her own song looking like she's having an awesome time. It's heartwarming. Imagine being like a super niche retro youtube dancer and out of nowhere a retro band from another country does a vinyl-released song all about you!

The track in HQ

Haha that's awesome she's great. deserving of a ska theme song!! it seems nuts I haven't heard of similar poo poo happening in the massive scene of youtube dancing people... I guess there was the northern soul girl who danced to pharrell "happy" on TV after a youtube hit. but still this is cute as hell

e: also, is it just me or is there a semi-large ska dancing subculture that is like, vast majority latina/latino? clicking around her stuff... like, she does a basic ska steps video and just remarks offhand "there wasn't any ska dancing lessons in english so I'm doing one" like ... so they're all in spanish?!
