“For hundreds of years the Caribbean has stood proud. A crossroads of cultures; north, south, east and so sadly west the people came and went. Some by choice, others by force. The culture they brought, the culture they created - Alone they stood. Kaiso Papa praise singing West Indian griots transposed their songs of congratulation to please the colonialist powers, and gentrified Scottish formal dances were turned into raucous party music, while the drums spoke to the African heart and the bastard offspring became the new culture; island culture.. a culture spawned of heat, misery, survival, celebration, rebelliousness, home sickness, healing and happiness. 
Men and women moved from the south and west african latitudes to the great American north to harvest rice, to pick cotton and thence back again to their plantations in the Caribbean. Men came from France to work with Cubans and Jamaicans on the Panama Canal, trading insults and trading cultures. Those men then returned, married.. begat sons and daughters with whom they shared their musical joys, and those men and women in return added nourishment and spice to the ital stew. And boiling over, it fed the masses; it kept them calm. It satisfied them, and their hunger grew. Families separated by hundreds of years now listened to the same powerful radio signals beaming out of Nashville and Memphis and New Orleans; black music, black culture, the black of night. And after a hard days toil, the sound systems come out.
Freedom.
If you don’t believe me, check out Jim Reeves’ LP ‘The international Jim Reeves’ for evidence. Jim truly was international. Ken Parker, falsetto king of Jamaican singers, knew he was international because he was not the only West Indian to love the country music of their country cousins’ southern oppressors. He and Jim were definitely guilty.
“The Drums” they called out across the unfathomable distance of time and memory, and music was born out of love and necessity and the hybridised genetics of influence.
And seventy-two nations were born.
The Jungle is dark. The seas will swallow you up whole and no one will ever know you had troubled yourself to live. Watch out, or the Duppys will get you. Look out for the devil in everything you do. Jamaica has the highest proportion of religious buildings to people in the world. Did you know that? There’s a lot to know about the islands that were once home to pirates. Buccaneers named for the way they barbecued pork. Men only remembered for the name they gave to brands of rum. The music will guide you, let it take you; to history, to people, to the lives lived and the struggle to survive..”dadawah - seventy two nationsrico rodriguez - distant drumslopez walker - fly awayheavyweight dub - fidel at the controlprince far i - plant uplennie hibbert - rose lenjackie opel - tears from my eyesblind blake - goombay drumsmissionary quintet bahamas - climbing up the mountainthe congos - ark of the covenantburning spear - door peep shall not entercarl bradney - slipping into darknessskatalites & brentford all stars - shockers rockalpha and omega - the firmamentafrican headcharge - off the beaten trackaugustus pablo - silent sattawayne wade - man of the livingjackie mittoo - brain markscientist - blood on his lipscornel campbell - king in my empirethe wailers - high tide and low tidebahama lullaby - roll on my caribbean seatrini calypsonian - poppy daycyril diaz orchestra - tabualerth bedasse - farmyard cha cha chaedmund white - jo jojunior dan - look out for the devilchurchical chants of the nyabingi - white boy a followerjack wilson and demon rockers - chuck itvivian jones - got a lightclint eastwood & general saint - can’t take another world warearly b - righteous rastamancount ossie & the mystic revelation of rastafari - poemkarl bryan - money generator(unknown)the upsetters - the vampireprince buster all stars - trip to marsjackie mittoo - ayatollahaugustus pablo - east of the river nileleroy sibbles - garden of lifeumoja dub - cry of the destitutethe ethiopian - when will be the end
