A wonderful 2 DVD set chronicling some of the most beloved film creations of this early master. The films range from aesthetically sublime animations to live dance, but really it all dances. There’s good reason this genre has come to be known as Visual Music.

Roots, Rock, Reggae

Material Type: All, Movies — Tags: , — Posted on June 29, 2007 at 11:57 am

By: Jimmy Cliff

Do you like reggae? If you do, you have to watch this great video that gives a glimpse of the reggae scene in Kingston, Jamaica. The footage of Trenchtown is revealing, especially contrasted with the luxurious parts of Kingston. Artists interviewed and performing include Jimmy Cliff, Bob Marley, Toots and the Maytals, Jacob Miller & Inner Circle, The Absyinnians, Lee “Scratch” Perry, and Joe Higgs.
