Rocksteady - Catch This Beat
Rocksteady - Catch This Beat
Playlist Info
Creator:
Carter Van Pelt
Description:
All the music on this playlist was recorded in the brief #rocksteady period in Jamaican music, 1966-1968, just before the rhythm guitar and organ emphasis changed the beat to reggae. The earliest rocksteady had traces of ska (Miss Nora) and the last rocksteady had hints of reggae (Engine 54).
