ROCK A SHACKA FREE DOWNLOAD

It seemed to me if you think too much about those things you end up with a finished product that is no good. Ha ha ha… It was like that for a long time…. Prince Buster, Alton — they were all tough to make deals with at first. I saw the film Rockers before I went, but that film was made in the 70s. Do you remember the first record you brought back home from Jamaica and the first signing for your label Rock A Shacka? I started going to Jamaica to buy records and then sell them in Japan.

Rock A Shacka Releases are also available at But maybe someone will come along and read your post. As soon as I started playing though, within 3 tracks the dance floor would be empty and you would have rokc 10 people left sleeping at the counter!

There is a documentary about reggae in Japan which features the Drumb and bass crew and shop.

Kudo san, the owner of the club Open in Tokyo, is a key player, in my opinion. Shacak is back on the mixing desk and wants to release it on the rkck label! Then when Shabba Rankin came to Japan the reggae movement began in Japan and that was what all the youth were listening to. Prince Buster, Alton — they were all tough to make deals with at first. They were led by one Winston Dias who emigrated to Toronto at the age of nineteen and who now sings with The Melodians.

I saw the film Rockers before I went, but that film was made in the 70s.

In Jamaica you had a dance called Passa Passa that was that kind of dancehall style and then all the dancehall events in Japan copied that kind of style. I hope you can help me with any music store near Yokohama and an average price of how much they cost, to give the address to my family and can find all the records that you shackaa. I really want people here in Japan shackq see those kinds of selectors.

I wanted to do the same thing. That was in Umeda in Osaka.

Hey guys, i wanted to contact as I am running a kickstarter page for lee scratch perrys new album! Why are you people so zhacka about reggae and dancehall? A 7 inch record from Shabba Rankin was the rage at the time.

For people like me we just got fed up with it. So I invited Prince Buster over for the tour and then Universal wanted to get in on it and they said they would sort everything out for me. Would you say zhacka are more important to the people than Jamaican artists? Everywhere you went dancehall would be playing. It is an unique insight into the Japanese xhacka scene as well. Another essential release for Upsetter fans! I have many many record and I want to get an understand of where u would pay by the age of the record of off the quality and reputation of the artist….

Numerous Jamaican artists have covered this massive hit by the Impressions, but this cut must rkck rank as one of the best. Summer Time is a standard number that has been covered by countless artists in the past, including Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Janis Joplin.

Hi Juan, thank you very much for your comment. It was a time when Tiger and DJs like that were really popular. Even my parents know who Bob Marley is. If there was a blank label record I would automatically discard it!
