Reggae, I think - lovers' rock-type stuff?

Mercy · 08/03/2008 17:49

Reggae (well, a particular type of)

KatyMac · 08/03/2008 17:49

oh

Not terribly the wiser

Could anyone name some that I might have heard of

do you remember the 'rock steady crew?'

KatyMac · 08/03/2008 17:52

Vaguely - but not with specifics (iyswim)

No, not thick!
afaik, Rock Steady was quite a small and short movement within the develpoment of reggae - it's really nice to listen to!

Lipstick on your collar - phyllis dillon
Angel of the morning - Joya Landis
Travelling Man - The Techniques

also, Tommy McCook, The Paragons, The Melodians, the Silvertones....

southeastastra · 08/03/2008 17:55

i googled it quite interesting

KatyMac · 08/03/2008 17:56

OK lets give up on reminding Katymac on what Rock Steady is

Will she be able to dance to it all night?

OP posts:
Blu · 08/03/2008 17:58

YES!
Have fun

southeastastra · 08/03/2008 17:59

yes sounds like it can i come with you?

Blu · 08/03/2008 17:59

Sounds like mellow ska, sort of.

KatyMac · 08/03/2008 18:02

OK - & you would all wear jeans?

OP posts:
Mercy · 08/03/2008 18:02

Have you heard the song 'Let Your Yeah be Yeah' by The Pioneers? It's a classic, very danceable to.

And can I come too please?!

KatyMac · 08/03/2008 18:04

Of course you can all come - Can you get to Yarmouth by 7:30?

OP posts:
Mercy · 08/03/2008 18:05

I could be fashionably late!

Have a good time! (and yes, I'd wear jeans)

southeastastra · 08/03/2008 18:08

KatyMac · 08/03/2008 18:14
