Giving Thanks
November 22, 2009 06:10 PM PST
To be standing atop the ground, instead of under it. Unemployed, but not destitute. Allowed to broadcast conscious sounds without restrictions. The Bush years, in the rear-view (though, with "centrist" Democrats, who needs Republicans?).
It's a short list for Thanksgiving... but, there are things for which to be thankful.

I don't have Rizla's playlist, but this show is a special Live-I-Cation to the musical talents of Johnny Gilmore, veteran journeyman drummer for too many Charlottesville bands to count. Jazz, Blues, Reggae, whatever you could imagine was within grasp of his sticks. Tragically, gone. But, October 09, 2009 05:56 PM PDT
I'm still pissed about the arrogant resistance to health care in the US.
The time to embarrass the Blue Dog Democrats, bound, like their Republican counterparts, to deny basic, affordable health care to Americans. The after life will be a very lonely place, idiots.
The message is in the music.

It has been my great fortune to have witnessed some excellent reggae radio, here on the east coast. A prerequisite to spending many years in the DC area was having access to excellent broadcasts, of which WPFW Radio was instrumental. In that time, this radio station representing Howard University was host to two icons of reggae radio: Papa Wabe, who presented "Shock Waves", which not only forwarded conscious reggae, but instructed with the "Rastafari Voices" segment... and Sydney White, whose weekend show exposed a young roots-rock lover to the bedrock of rock steady. Though other influences are legion, these performers and Selectors helped define my inspiration and appreciation with Forwarding reggae music. And, with respect, I begin today's program with "Natural Progressions", Mr. White's sign-on theme: "Natural Progression" - Aswad - New Chapter [CBS] "Natural Aggression" - Aswad - New Chapter Of Dub [Mango] "Natural Mystic" - Bob Marley & the Wailers - Countryman soundtrack [Mango] "We Rock It" - Noiseshaper - CD single [Cat N' Roof Records] "Music My Rock" - Bedouin Soundclash - MP3 "Run The Plan" - Groundation - Here I Am [Groundation Music]"Dance Of The Vampires" - Scientist - ...Rids The World Of The Curse Of The Evil Vampires [Greensleeves] "Your Teeth In My Neck" - Scientist - ...Rids The World Of The Curse Of The Evil Vampires [Greensleeves] "Party Time" - Heptones - Best Of Studio One [Heartbeat] "Fist To Fist" - Lone Ranger - Collection [DGV] "Conquering Heart Dub" - Blue King Brown/Chris Macro - ReAmplify [Easy Star] "Johnny Was" - Bob Marley & the Wailers - Songs Of Freedom [Island] "Since I Throw The Comb Away" - Twinkle Bros - Since I Throw The Comb Away [Sunsplash Records] "Struggling" - John Brown's Body - ReAmplify [Easy Star] "Machete Strike" - Ten Foot Ganja Plant - Bush Rock [ROIR] "Mystic Man" - Peter Tosh - Honorary Citizen [Columbia] "National Herb" - Lone Ranger - Collection >"Ramble" - Rico Rodrigues - Countryman [Mango] "Dos Lenos" - The Toyes - Viva La Rasta [Aztlan] "Besame" - Pericos - Yerbabuena [EMI] "Quem Aviso" - Djambi - Keep This Feeling "Big Shot" - Noiseshaper - CD-EP "Crystal Blue Persuasion" - Heptones - Deep In The Roots [Heartbeat] "White Man In Hammersmith Palais" - The Clash - Clash On Broadway [EPIC] Remembering Katrina August 28, 2009 06:49 PM PDT
Tagging along with the Jazz department, and giving credit where it is due: the Crescent city, New Orleans. Four years after Katrina, there are glimmers of hope, but much remains to be done. Would Jamaican music be the same without those static-y broadcasts across the water in the 50s and 60s? Perhaps not. Two hours of storm-related and Second Line Skank... ...and a massive Big Up to our friends at WWOZ Radio (particularly WTJU alumni, Tom "Bartender" Morgan).

"Out the candle... tek off you bangle... turn your neck 'pon the right angle"." It sounds hilarious when Lone Ranger chants it. After all, he claims "Barney 'a de best inna de bizness...

Corporate Executives. Come... grab a musical wooden stake.

The original "baldheads", the skinheads, were English lovers of ska and rock steady.
Their look was co-opted first by National Front racists, then neo-Nazis... now, by Wall Street vipers.
A natural progression, methinks.
