limeyangler Posted December 3, 2013 Report Posted December 3, 2013 RIP Junior Murvin, Another great passes over….irreplaceable…sad loss.
Rizzo Posted December 3, 2013 Report Posted December 3, 2013 ...huh....here I thought that song was a Clash original. Unfortunately never heard of Junior Murvin, although it seems some of the best music can trace its roots back to reggae.
Musky or Specks Posted December 3, 2013 Report Posted December 3, 2013 The whole Clash sound was their intepretation of the reggae that was being played at the clubs in England in the 70's.
limeyangler Posted December 3, 2013 Author Report Posted December 3, 2013 The whole Clash sound was their intepretation of the reggae that was being played at the clubs in England in the 70's. The Police too were almost exclusively a reggae inspired band, Blondie also pumped out a few tunes of that ilk. The stuff i loved from the seventies and eighties also inspired the whole Ska, Skinhead, Rudeboy/2Tone fashion/music scenes of my childhood. The group 'Madness' or 'The Specials' would be the mainstream face of those groups. Just a wicked time to have been growing up. In the same schoolyard you would see….Punks, Goths, Numanoids, Rockabillies, Teddy Boys, Psychobillies, Smoothies/Casuals, New Roamantics, Rude Boys, Skinheads, Soul Boys…….boy was it a time of TRIBES!
