King Edwards "The Giant" Sound System (Part One)
King Edwards assembled five complete sound system sets and played throughout the island of Jamaica. When King Edwards began their sound system in 1955, rhythm and blues music from America was a sensation. King Edwards played the most exclusive records by artists that a Jamaican ear preferred. King Edwards was the talk of the town, and they were loved by their followers and feared by opposing sounds.

This music is a sneak peek into the forthcoming book titled “Two Kings - King Edwards ‘The Giant’ Sound System” with an expected release date of December 2021 with distribution via Amazon.com

King Edwards Part One of Two  - Ja Way Reggae Podcast

Jamaica Way Reggae Podcast presents an in-depth interview with filmmaker Brad Klein. Inspired by the 1996 Cuban documentary of Buena Vista Social Club, twenty years ago, Klein assembled Jamaican greats for his musical reunion documentary film Legends of Ska. The film features footage from two live stage shows and artist interviews with an array of greats from the original ska era, including Owen Gray, Prince Buster, Patsy Todd, Justin Hinds, Stranger Cole, Lord Tanamo, Herman Sang, Phil Chen, Cannonball Bryan, many of the original Skatalites instrumentalists, and engineer Graeme Goodall.  
Director Brad Klein reveals his experiences working with the artists to make the film a reality.  Klein also discusses his early work at KUOM am radio and RAS Record Company.  
This film is not readily available for viewing, but 2022 being the twentieth anniversary of the film’s performances, there is a push for streaming access and showings at select theatres. This is an important historical film that showcases ska greats in a unique and exciting format.  It is a must-see that ranks with films like Deep Roots, Rocksteady, and (in my opinion) The Harder They Come.

The Podcast features the Jamaican Mento tune "Father Killam."  Numerous versions of the tune are played along with discussion about the song itself.  Ethnomusicologist Kenneth Bilby joins us as we play live versions, rare seven-inch singles and filed recordings from Jamaica.  This mento song has an Obeah theme where an Obeahman is trying to catch a ghost or puppy that is causing problems for a woman.

This is another edition of a Mento version excursion with the tune called "Healing in the Balmyard." The excursion includes a visit by Dr Ken Bilby.  Dr. Bilby is an ethnomusicologist with an expertise in the areas of Jamaican mento and Obeah (in many parts of the world).  Rich Lowe of WRUW Radio and Dr. Bilby discuss this song, the musical/cultural origins, and Obeah references within the song.  
This is a unique program, which we were pleased to be able to create with the kind assistance of Dr. Billy.  Very much an honor to present this Podcast.  Listen and enjoy.  You will be smarter as a result.

Carlos Malcolm Podcast - Jamaica Way Podcast

The “sound clash” is the public competition by sound systems that play in dance halls and lawns to win the listening crowd’s loyalty. As the record selector for El Paso Sound System, Samuel Phillips—known as “Samuel the First”—describes the time he selected an Audley Rollen recording during a pivotal clash against Ruddy’s Sound at Ruddy’s personal lawn (gathering place): 
There was a group call The Emotions, Audley Rollen. It was Lloyd Matador.

Lloyd Daley "The Matador" PODCAST, March 2019 - 2:20:19, 6.15 PM

Starting in 1982 and after 37 years on the radio in Cleveland, Ohio on "Night of The Living Dread," I just ended the program last week.   
WRUW 91.1 FM is a 15,000 watt station where I have always had full freedom to play our music - way before the internet arrived.  The last radio show ended with an outdoor show with a group of Jamaican friends, station members, & longtime listeners like Dennis T., Dancing Dennis, Walt T, Ras Pablo, Jerry C, A&P crew, and Scorpio the veteran. It was a great run, but radio has changed significantly.  No longer is radio the only source - there are many sources, usually right there on your phone!
So we continue on with music for the "Reggaemusiclovinpeople" on this podcast – Jamaica Way Reggae Podcast on soundcloud and at reggaejamaicaway.com  This will be a regular podcast with Music, Interviews, and talk.
I'll be here 2-3 times per month, along with my dog Buffy, to play some great music!

Jamaica Way Reggae Podcast, "International Reggae with Dr Ken Bilby" Part 2 of 2 (003)

Getting itchy with this Coronavirus isolation and thought it was a good move to create another Jamaica Way Podcast.  This time I made a big change.  I approached this podcast as if I was getting ready to do my olde Friday night radio program on WRUW 91.1fm.  So I set p a log sheet of things to discuss, set a start time for a 90 minute-ish LIVE show, and spent a few minutes configuring my audio equipment for a Radio-Style program.  It all went as planned - smooth!  
So all Reggaemusiklovinpeople who have followed my radio program over the years - this is EXACTLY like what we did at WRUW.  It's another show, ready to go, like a fresh batch of biscuits outa the oven.
ENJOY!

David Rodigan mentions the book about Lloyd Daley "The Matador" on the BBC.
The book is about Jamaican music producer, but it is also about everyone - especially early Jamaican music history.  
It's available worldwide via Amazon.  A lotta people don't like Amazon, but they published this book and you can get it. 
I'm the author and it's the best work that I have done in music to date.  Still, there's more to come.  I'm a Reggaemusiklovinperson of course.
