It's great to see these foundation dances when it was about good music with no fuss nor fight with the people of all colours coming out in droves to enjoy the night. Unfortunately the sound system culture is dying with no where to have these types of dances also no where to play or people to go wow how times have changed. Me as a person who played sound system back in the 60's I find it very disheartening to see what has happened to this great culture
Boy did this video bring some memories when these Big Peoples Sounds used to play in my home town places like Newlands club under the flyover when they could run a proper dance. May seem contrary when outside Babylon ruled stronger than ever yet within the safety of the dance peace & love always prevailed like we were in a free state no longer beholden to the forces of evil waging their bitter seige against us, outside our all too seldom sanctuary - many thanks for posting this film
You will notice that it was around this time, from mid nineties 90s onwards when non black people started getting into sound systems in big numbers. You will see a lot of white, Asian/Chinese going to these sessions.... before then you would hardly see anyone who wasn't black. In fact, apart from Rodigan it was extremely rare to see white people at these dances. There was a time when these dances were exclusively black. Remember those Bali Hai Sunday nights? Or maybe those town hall dances? When black people were more united and we had our own world. Who had heard of gun crime or daily black on black killings? What a different world it was back then... Now look at sound systems sessions today! Whether you agree or disagree or lament the passing of the good old days, the sound systems movement has totally changed.
@@richmck007 Not really. I don't share your sense of celebration if I'm honest. So because a lot of white people listen to sound system now it's gone "uptown"? As for me I preferred it when we were more together as black people. Going "uptown" is useless and negative if you lose what it was about. Rock came from Rock and Roll which was originally black music anyway. You see a few black opera singers and maybe a few people in the audience. As black people we create our own music whether it's hop hop, reggae, soul or Afrobeat. After a while others start to "listen" to our music then the next thing you know we lose control of its direction. Remember when hip hop was positive? Look at it now. If it's not gangsta rap or grime rapping about us killing each other it doesn't get pushed by the powers that be. Ever wondered why? Look at the sound system business today. It's nothing like it used to be. All those great artists, many of whom are no longer with us earned a pittance from their music. Who's making the money out of it now?
Superblack Perhaps I did not explain myself enough..! I’m 59. From London. Have traveled all over the UK, in the 70, 80s and until mid 90s. In the beginning you never saw the diversity that exists today. I agree with your words for sure. Man, when I tell you I would walk into an English pub wearing dungarees, Redwing boots and a black bikers jacket with a white tee shirt with some nonsense scrolled across my chest, the looks I got were enough to say, you’re definitely in the wrong pub!!! Went to Europe, nobody batted an eyelid at first, later things changed. Acceptance of who we are came about. I first saw that in Holland then Paris in the early 80s. In London, we had own world. We never mixed until the early to mid 80s... When I was coming up, Carnival as a reference was predominately Black. ( but that has played a huge part in bringing the masses of all nations together for two glorious days of diversity...) But still certain parts of all cultures were predominately to its own kind. To see a black man at a rock concert, the theatre let alone try to dance ballet in a white world was not the norm when I was coming up. In most walks of life it was rare to find black people in jobs where you faced customers...Supermarkets, Banks, Hotels, the service industry. Even university and the better jobs were for the people here. But this has changed immensely. The inner city was deep with sub culture but the youth changed that thru’ the music, fashion and trends. And as such, brought white and other ethnic minorities into our fold through it. I am coming from 4 decades of change, and for the good of it. Believe me when I say the Americans would love to have had our diversity as much as us and that there are people still here who continue to look down on social change, we can say this little island did that...Sadly, not everyone will accept it. Those people come from a certain sector of society who are knuckleheads and don’t want change. I have zero tolerance for them. I hear all you are saying. I am just telling you like it was when I was coming up in West London, moved to East London then South London and finally after a stint in North London had to get away! But I always love to come back! London is still a melting pot of change and critical acclaim despite its issues. But so is The UK, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. All big cities have their pros and Cons. Yes, times have changed just like people’s mentality towards music, song lyrics. social disorder amongst black people as well. If you look at it, the Chinese and the Indian man always stuck together whilst the black man for the best part, did not! My Parents are from yard. Pardner money and the family were what we lived for. I grew up in London so I watched with educated eyes how we as a nation changed. The current climate is rift with crime and lacking direction. For me, it is music and West Indian culture which stitched it all together when I was coming up.It was hard but we did it. I hear the argument that “Run & Garn” ( D. Radian ) hyped up Jamaican music because of his passion for it but he did not influence my judgement with our culture: West Indian music and all its influences in other sub genres like Hip Hop Rap Reggae-ton, Trap, Garage...The list is endless. And that is where the culture crosses borders and brings people of all nationalities together. My god, if I told you that the biggest yearly reggae festival was Italian, held in Spain and attended by more European people than black people yet the performers are predominately fro the Carib and living in The US or Canada or The UK you would have to go see it for yourself and ask how did this thing get so huge?!?! Globalization my friend and good vibes from predominately the one island that says the 6th August every year we will celebrate our liberty and independence with dancing and drinking in the streets!!! Rodigan has privilege of place and used it well to get where he is today...Radio has an enormous influence in promoting mainstream music. And festivals like Rototom are the perfect platform to promote the music. Carnival in London has sold out that aspect, sadly. At the end of the day, most artists and their music go the mainstream way from the subculture we grew to know. Too much slackness and they fail but that is changing cos society wants it raw and fresh ! Who does not want to reap what they sow? At all costs it seems. Glad I’m out of it all. Let the youth them sample what you and I and many like us struggled to enjoy back in the day when the police using local authority bylaws tried to shut it all down. Music is culture. No amount of gun crime is gonna’s shut it down. It’s bigger than all of us! Goin hold a fresh, sip a brew and toast another independence . 58 years strong! 🎼👍🏼👍🏽🎼
Superblack Actually, whay has happened believe it or not is that there are less soundsystems active in The UK. Europe has created many soundsystems playing all genres of reggae but mostly dancehall... Even Japan has held the dancehall queen title and soundsystem clash trophy to date. In fact, reggae has seen a change in who listens to it and goes to soundclash in the past 20 years. Like most underground subcultures, economics and popularity eventually come into play and people come and new people jump on the bandwagon and do their thing a little way different ( to qoute Errol Dunkley...) I was in JA at Xmas and peoplein country tell me how hard it is to string up soundsystem without soundman plus the police clamdown in certain areas. It was easier before. It was also a West Indian ting before and like everything, change brings about a new direction whether we like it or not. You cannot keep culture locked to one people it seems... Just look how NHC changed over the years to attract investment, look how the Cuban dancers take over ballet when in the past black dancers in ballet was frowned upon... Politic is another area of change. When I was coming up there was only one or two black politicians ( Paul Boateng...Bernie Grant, Diane Abbot...) Perhaps if we as a race had got behind them a rallied them to do more for us, we would see parallels with that of the Indians and the Jews today as well as in the past... My parents did well, then went back to JA and invested. We have distant family in the soundsystem business and music as well. If what has happened in the UK had happened in JA, things would surely be different today. What we need is more unity because the love is there! Jah know 🙏🏽🇯🇲🙏🏽
@@richmck007 Thanks taking the time to and trouble to write such a considered response. Of course I totally agree with you. We cannot keep "culture locked to one people" but we should be making sure that the people or community who possess a culture, music or tradition are the ones who shape its future. Sadly you cannot say the same for reggae. I only hope that we learn the lessons of history but as I'm sure you know we black people just never seem to learn!

The first big clash I went to as a littal youth was sir coxsone v Jah Shaka mfm northampton Easter bank holiday 1980. All dayer nighter . I arrived at 2 in the afternoon and the dance was ram solid the mans smoked so much trees that when I got inside the dance there was a weed cloud in the air a sight to behold something I will never forget. Gregory Issacs the boarder was played brand new by coxsone this night, Barrington Levi was introduced to the world by Coxsone this night when he played
Great memories of sound systems from the past. Three of the most iconic sounds of the day. As mentioned the mixture of different ethnic groups attending today is fantastic to see.
Used to attend the big dances from the late 70s to the early 90s. My fave sounds were Shaka, Coxsone and Fat Man and the blues dances much preferred the underground scene. Jah Guide
I remember being here, Nuff Sounds I took in this venue, Big up my south london sounds Saxon, Frontline, Sledgehammer, Stereo Classic, Spartacus, Black Unity, Coxsone, King Tubbys, Prophecy, Remus, Viking, Taurus, Small Axe & the mighty Jah Shaka
Moonshot.. MASSIVE Royal Salute to Mumama Phoenix.. Community Yoth works.. Platforming Sir"Coxone. JAH" Shaka.!!!. & COUNTLESS.. OTHER BLACK Mentors . INN THE SRUGGKES SEVENTYS... UPLIFTED YOUTHS. GIVING THEM VOCATION AN VISION.. BLESSED. ONE.!. 💕
It's weird seeing yourself on a video from over 30 years ago. Me and my spar went to this event, and I remember it like yesterday. We look so young, standing right by Coxsone sound listing big people music. This was just about the time the dancehall style, and juggling had taken over. We were running SuperClick sound dem days, and even Tego is in this video behind Festus. Gwaaanmyooot! Great days. Would be nice to know who shot the video, as as a videographer myself these days, a little credit for great work in documenting our history, goes a long long way… Props! ✊🏿
Shaka rule ! others too much cheap sirens, talking and self satisfaction lirics, Fatman, but one tune and thing is said a real spiritual level... Jah creation by Creole 😄👆🔥 I remember when i heard this session for the first time I loved this tune and try to find it... but from the country side it was a long way ! I have been to England from France by hichiking to go to a Shaka session. Changed my life for ever !!! hope he is in a ZION for his spirit and all he has accomplish. 🙏
Because it's a fucking disgrace. This is black protest music of the 70s, Rastafarianism is Jamaican black power, a racist black repatriation movement based on Jamaican black liberation folk heros, etc. All these reggae figureheads needed to eat, and they didn't have other jobs or professions, I get that. But they sold out the music. The music also turned into shit formulaic steppers dub.
Of cause shaka is pkaying in his iwn back yard what a silly thing to say the oroof is in the pudding the fact that the other sounds are pkaying on shakad turf just goes to show the respect and the love these 3 sounds had for one another shaka will get the biggest cheer if he is playing on his stomping ground respect to the late great jah shaka sadly will be missed but not forgotten i think people are still in a daze about him dying one of the prophets of sound systems culture paved the way for alot of young men to build thete sound system in his image god bless and rip to you jah shaka best dub master we have evet listened to godeh shaka coxsone fatman the list goes on and on on
You can see how the crowd reacts when Shaka plays. Coxsone and Fatman always thought they were better, proof is in the pudding. Jah Shaka can pack a dance anywhere.
Actuall during 80s no more then 30 people come shaka. Those were days when Saxon and Unity and coxsone carried the crowd. Then when Nicky started managing shaka and got him rocket that's when crowd came back. Which was early 90s

Wow black people at a Shaka dance.... That's rare nowadays
I was at jah tubbys jah shaka 87 not many white man me and two others I saw.
its not even english white people at dance nowadays. they are all like frenchies and other europeans, new age hippies i call all of them.
Why not just embrace the fact that more and more people are getting into Dub instead of calling them names?
Because it's a fucking disgrace. This is black protest music of the 70s, Rastafarianism is Jamaican black power, a racist black repatriation movement based on Jamaican black liberation folk heros, etc. All these reggae figureheads needed to eat, and they didn't have other jobs or professions, I get that. But they sold out the music. The music also turned into shit formulaic steppers dub.
Yajna Amakusa you would have never heard the beauty of good dub unless it was in your head going with rastafari and that’s it.
