Its been a sad week with the passing if Gregory Lee. I started off a fan many years ago, but over the past few years he became a cherished friend, talking me through some pretty rough patches in life. I know he was much closer to many more of you. My heart goes out to everyone he touched either...

When I lived in Canada, Detroit was where I went to see MANY shows, and during that time there was LOTS of ska going on. One of those venues was the Magic Bag. While the Magic Bag still rocks there isn't as much Ska these days, and Detroit it a bit far from Pennsylvania. But I did reach into my...

Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #87: Unapologetically Awesome
One thing I have become painfully aware of is that my lack of knowledge as far as Latin American bands go is causing me to miss so much amazingly good music!

I deviated my usual Sunday Traditional Chill Session this week, but fear not I still have you some chill cooking up. For the longest time I was not down with Ska tunes that did not have lyrics. As I worked my way backwards through 3rd Wave Ska in the tail end of the 90's I started to appreciate…
more -
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #68: The Indecent Proposal
We all know that today's Rude Boy and Rude Girl's can be a little bit cheeky, but so too could yesterday's legends. In fact they wrote the book with Rocksteady!

-
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #66: In Remembrance
So 2020 was quite a year. We all found the strength and determination we maybe knew existed. Would found the ability to persevere in the face of adversity. We saw turmoil and change, heard promises and lies. Most of us come out of 2020 better people, but sadly some of us did not come out at all....
-
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #65: Roots and Culture
This weeks Episode comes on the heels of post Covid. I was stricken with the plague, it kept me down a while and while it was mild it had taken me a little while to fully bounce back. But I think it's safe to say I have arrived. This show I bring you a excellent cross section from across the ages...
-
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #64:Swing This !
Welcome this another special one off episode. Back in the 90's when Ska was rocking on all 8 cylinders another genre was making a comeback right behind it, this was Swing. I never enjoyed Swing quite as much as Ska, but I sure loved the dancing and the styles, especially all those legs! Gin and...
-
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #63: The Best of 2020, Part 1
Here is Part 1 of The Best of 2020. I suppose with the amount of legends we lost this year there is quite a lot of traditional Jamaican Music in my Best of this year. Our community took many blows and all of them hurt tremendously, but none more than the loss of Toots. I see there was a petition…
more -
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #62: The Best of 2020, Part 2
So it's no secret that 2020 was a crazy ass year! Between the Politics and Covid and every other little thing that could go wrong and did the only normalcy I was left with (and a lot of you) was music. So I took advantage and listened the Hell out of everything I could find. I put so many hours…
more -
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #61: Skaristmas with Rocksteady Tonight
So Christmas has come again. Despite 2020 being virtually non-existent Christmas always comes! I am looking forward to it a little bit more this year than previous years though.

-
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #60: Boot Boy Oi!
For a long time Rick and I have been kicking around the idea of churning out an episode of Oi! Tunes, but you have the usual complications when doing such a thing. This time we said to Hell with what the idiots thing, plus we had the blessing of the Grand Pooba of Boot Boy Radio. So what you've…

Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #55: Super Soul Sunday
I have been hearing a lot about Northern Soul, even watched a flick, still I know nothing about it! Though I do know quite a bit about Soul and Motown coming from just across the river from Detroit. So I figured with the world spinning as wild and crazy as it is right now we could all use a…

more -
Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #58: Don't Panic
Hey folks - This weeks episode is the accidental accident. We carried over a lot of tune left over tunes from previous shows. When we played it out it seemed to be very politically motivated. While we have our opinions, which very likely mirror your own. This is a place of music so we try to…

Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #52: Chill Sunday Trad Session
Thanks for stopping by for a listen. I had been feeling rather chill a recent Sunday spun out a pretty awesome set of Trad tunes. So pull up a slice of the sofa, your favorite easy chair, a hammock or a workout bench if that's your speed and take 90 minutes and decompress with a nice vibe and…

Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #51: Stop The Presses
So while 2020 has been a less than stellar year for people, and the ska community especially we took a different approach for this episode. Rick and I had been talking about having people come on and co-host with us for a while so I spoke with Danny and Ali from Stop The Presses about this. They...

Rocksteady Tonight - Episode #50: Shout It Out for Toots!
Before you tell me I know #49 is missing. This was a special episode, so I jumped #49 to get this out. With Toots Hibbert currently suffering from Covid 19, and his family requesting prayers this needed to be done today. I know not everyone is religious so praying may not be in the cards.…
