I met Mikey Dread at Blake's on Telegraph in hometown of Berkeley, California. I was only 21 so it must have been 2002. The band had no herb and their bass player asked me as I was walking by. I ended up spend the night kicking with them and Mikey dropped the same dope dub he's well known for in the small venue that was Blake's basement stage. One of the coolest nights ever. Rest in eternal love and peace Mikey Dread! Forever blessed in the grace of Jah. ❤️
I came in part 2 (1979, when Reggae was starting to become more known, saw Gregory Issac, Black Uhuru, Earl Dunkley. Pat Kelly, & more @ London 100 Club & the Rainbow... Brilliant times. When clubs would be in run down buildings & basements.
You did your thing like no one else could,paved the way for many, you truly believed you could make a change, and you did. I will always remember you and the great days at JBC in Jamaica Tomlin
How the hell ave I only just found this!! Followed the UB's since day one, and turned up at a gig years back wiv me DATC t-shirt on me back to see (another hero) Mikey Dread as support.. Blew me away, totally!!
i remember this wow thanks for posting this ive been trying to track this track for years now i can enjoy it to my hearts content UB40 and Mikey Dread is as they say these days Dread which simply means SUPERB
Dread at the control,jah bless and guide.ALWAYS SUPPORTED,Michael Campbell music,OUT OF MANY.The legend lives on.Noel Benjamin,Samaritan Rockers Sound System, South London....
In memoriam... the best, Mikey Dread (Michael Campbell)RIP, se fue, pero dejo un grande, enorme legado, en la memoria colectiva el maestro -Dread at the control-
@pberglin : Mostly they say/shout: 'Wheel......!!!' or ' Rewind !!!! ' . I think it comes originally from reggae-deejays (soundsystems) who really did rewind the tape / plate , then announce something again and then restart the song. This always gives some extra push-/powerfeeling to the song. This rewind-thing is totally accepted for bands in 'reggae-world' .
Que buena cansion! que buen video! uviera querido estar hay pero el recuerdo queda, que bien se la pasaron los que estaban hay :D roots and coolcha!! :D
Anybody know a song Mikey Dread performed when he sang ''go to work on mon ... tue, wed etc then church on sunday ? I seen him do it in Glasgow but I've never been able to find out what it was. I even asked Mikey after a gig but don't think he understood Scottish (",)

I was at this gig, I cannot believe it was 26 years ago, Oh shite I feel old!!! KEEP ON ROCKIN' AN' KEEP ON SMILLIN' !!!
How does 38 years ago sound? Hope you’re still rockin and smilin!
Amazing! The "false start", the dub-like break, everything about this is great. Mikey Dread out in front of UB40 is a genius collaboration.
Great song, wish I was alive during the Golden Age of reggae...
