► A new unearthing from our vaults: Sir David Rodigan bringing his unmistakable energy to BR #67 back in 2011.
Absolutely love David Rodigan. Middle class old white man making no apologies for the music and culture he loves. Speading peace, love and unity. This what the world needs!
First 🇺🇸 who comments will be about cultural appropriation. 😅
Every tune was fire for its own reason.
Wasn't old when him start buss... check him dubplates from the originators.. man was a Yard in 79.. Saint Rodigan
This comment should be more popular
There is no DJ in the UK, possibly the world that gives so much information, so much collected knowledge and so much love for their work, then this legend. Sir David Rodigan has truly fed my passion for reggae and helped it grow.
I love hearing reggae artists from all around the world shout him out in their song. KING RODIGAN
Have you heard Durrty Goodz tune called Rodigan?
Sam Leadbeater There are many they just aren't given the platforn Rodigon is.
Too right go david
Look at the joy on that man's face like it's the first time he's hearing this great music. It's awesome to have a passion like that for so long.
Un my first refuge years 99, l was lucky to listen BFBS british forces bro service...with Jhon Peel make my days much easyer...
He brought Reggae to the main stream uk radio station. Blessings man
I've never hate on Rodigan. I have nothing but big 100% respect for the man. His love for reggae is bonafide genuine. All those years ago when he started, did he knew he was going to get knighted? No, he didn't. His reggae knowledge is immense. The man met the legends in person, the stars, the producers, the sound operators. The fact he's white is irrelevant. He, along with Tony Screw's Downbeat and U Roy's Sturgav are keeping reggae alive. Nuff respeck, Roddy!
56postoffice he's not been knighted...has MBE but is often referred to as a Sir. He nearly declined the MBE at that, he only accepted it on behalf of all citizens of Jamaica.
And why was that do you think!?
I couldn’t say it better!!!
well, actually, the fact that he is white is relevant because it is a testament to the beauty and power of culture vibe, it can unify us all if we open our hearts to it. I myself am a white skinned Cuban and my passion for Reggae is off the charts. But to concur with you, Rodigan the boss selecter
I used to listen to my brothers old Trogen records . Then i found David every Sunday morning on the radio. I'm 59 now and i still love this guys
David Rodigan is a legend. A true MC. It’s beautiful to see that Mr Rodigan still feels the music after all these years. Much respect.
he's performing in Cardiff tomorrow for the 40th anniversary
When reggae catches your ear it never goes away!
A ride through reggae history with the 1 and only, David Rodigan! A true legend ❤
Major respect to rodigan. I use to listern to his music from when I was just a young boy listening to him on sunday nights at my friends place on his rastafarian dads old radio. Later in in life reggae was the music that saved my soul well incarcerated for 4 years as it bought me hope and love in a place that only has violence and upset. Big up reggae music world wide. 1 love
Salute you "Sir David Rodigan" have been a follower of this man since 1982...... I'm now 50........ And still Frickin' love the man ..... 😍😘💕 💫
Do you happen to know the first record he ever bought? I'm looking for the name of that song haha
@@snakespreader I’m pretty sure it’s in his autobiography/book he made it goes on about how he first got into music and his first I influences, it’s a really good read if recommend it
@@snakespreaderI believe it’s my boy lollipop by Millie small… sorry I’m 5 years late
@@psychonautical6587 pahaha great thanks, It has been so long I forgot why i ever asked. Saw rodigan 5 years ago on some mandy haha
@@snakespreader can’t get better than that. I’m seeing him on Friday!
What a speech to start his set, respect!
What amazes me about Rodigan, is the guy's enthusiasm for the music he's playing. And by all appearances, he's an encyclopedia of music knowledge.
That intro is legendary
I am 59 yrs old...David gives me hope ...love you man
Listening to Sir Rodigan play is like going on a musical history lesson. Nuff Raspect Roddy.
How'd u like Soul Syndicate+King Tubby+Dennis Brown+Steven Marley?!?
I love how he mixes the the history with his love for the music. I only found him last year, yet have been listening to these genres for nearly 20 years. There is no other music like this. None. So now he goes from my favorite King tubby+Jacob Miller to Bitty McClean ... We are fortunate to have such easy access to this. Nothing nurtures my spirit quite like reggae music. Cheers.
This man tought me so much 40, 45 years ago he's my mentor! Big up mr Rodigan!
Blessed love! 💚💛❤
King Rodigan doing what he does best! I can't think of a better way to spend my life, spinning beautiful records. My Inspiration!
Remember the "good old times" when use to sit at the Radio, listening BFBS and "Taped" as much of this stuff as possible. Thx Mr. Rodigan to share your love 4 music with us!
So much love for Rodigan. Few people are so passionate about their craft.
Met him in Croatia, London and back in my hometown of Newcastle. Several fistbumps have been shared over the years!
British Jamaican. Born in London. Lived in Kent. Reminds my father’s parties in our old home.
Bought Rodigan’s book. Haven’t read yet. Music sounds wonderful!

only short distance from Dortmund but no SSVC tv.
So had to listen to BFBS radio instead.
Roddigan's Rockers sparked my love for reggae and Dub.
Bielefeld 1993/1997 Rodigans rockers BFBS 👊🏻
I grew up in Germany in the 80s listening to some awesome Dub being selected by the Crucial Dave Rodigan on the British Forces Broadcasting service.
He is still up there bringing the sound systems to those that would have no idea where to find them.
Exactly my experience, but from just across the German Dutch border.
Rodigan was born in Germany himself if im not mistaken
@@PeterJanHaas I was in Mönchengladbach, so I could have probably waved to you from there
Wonder if I could book Rodigan to do a speech at my wedding ? ...
kiss mi neck yes but I warn you he will talk too much after a few beers
Hahaha Yes , but i would love that
marry me

Straight outta Catanzaro, big respect for David Rodigan.
Ma davvero quel pezzo di Jacob Miller era la canzone del Catanzaro? 😂😂 Universal reggae music!!!
my man has been there for the country and culture from day 100
I first encountered David Rodigan on BFBS radio whilst stationed in Germany whilst serving in the army in the early 90's, he is world renowned as one of the greatest "selecta" and his knowledge is supreme, he has brought so many artists out of the shadows... respect for a lifetime
Such a legend . Is it just me or is the Tubbys,Dennis Brown , Jnr Gong Africa dub one of the best ever to be played .
Heard this years before on a Festival i want this song so bad :D

Can't believe I've only just heard of this guy big respect 🙏
Just discovered rodigan !
Rodigan played Dublin around the same time as this BR, in Twisted Pepper and I'm enjoying this (i.e. watching at home) more than I enjoyed being at the gig. It's a unique experience, a Roddy gig, with its pros and cons. Like any reggae sound system event with the soundclash formula, the stops and starts break your concentration but with Roddy, the constant pull ups and monologues make you feel like there's more talk and silence than there is music. Also, you're dancing..then you're standing around..then you're dancing again. It gets a bit wearying after an hour. On the plus side, there's some great stuff in the stories, the music (when its on) is fantastic and there's the joyous sight of this fat speccy old geezer leaping around to reggae, doing what most young DJs dream of still doing in their 60s.
I was reading some of these comments and anybody with sense should David radigan is a good entertainer not really a selector now coxsone was not hating on radigan he was just putting him in his proper place because he is not a godfather for reggae in England it was very disrespectful for those bigger heads in Jamaica to reward him a honour that he doesn't deserve that's all
He never said he was a godfather of reggae but a gateway, a door so to speak to open up for all, the power of reggae and to share the sounds of Jamaica and his love his passion his pride. He is a funny little fella but he is the best in his craft and he respects everyone and doesn't think he is above or better than anyone even tho he kill a sound boy fi dead lol he is an ambassador and loves the Jamaica people as much as their music. Nothing but love and that's facts, hate him or love him he is a legend. From the age of 13 I've been listening to Mr Rodigan, now 43 and I still 1 foot skank sipping pon me rum listening to rodigan and all the old and new sounds 💃🕺🏿 I'm a junglist at heart ❤️
How can Coxsone hate on RamJam?? The man's passion for reggae music & culture is clear, listen to his opening speech keenly. He humbly acknowledges that he's merely a selector & pays homage to all the UK sound systems, including Coxsone!! & this was in 2011!! Jealousy & bitterness never a good thing!
Zimbox TV
it's not about his passion it's about the deeper meaning of exploitation and 'others' claiming what's rightfuĺly ours and then giving no true recognition for the founder's and warriors of today keeping the genuineness of Reggea going.
That may be true in general terms but those accusations specifically against Ram Jam are unsubstantiated. That's my point, by all means be angry about cultural misappropriation but the argument is lost when you attack the wrong person & use derogatory language in the process. Unacceptable!
Both Coxsone & Rodigan have advanced the cause for reggae in the U.K. albeit in different ways. Rodigan didn't award himself any awards & neither did he call himself king of anything - he never would. So the rastaman's accusation is based on a lie & I can't respect that.
Personally, I learn a lot more about Jamaican music & culture when I tune in to a Rodigan session or attend a dance than when I go to some of these Jamaican bashment parties or soundclashes where it's pure fuckery. Screaming obscenities into the mic, daggering BS & where the music is more hip hop than reggae. So just being Jamaican born doesn't necessarily guarantee authenticity. There's no doubt about reggae's origins but the music transcended Jamaica decades ago. Personally I don't see how that is a problem.
If Rodigan never existed Coxsone & the 500 sounds that he claims to represent will still be exactly where they are today. There's no need to compete or compare, same mission different platforms. Black culture has been misappropriated for decades & I could give you a 100 names of people who've 'stolen' from reggae but Rodigan's name is not gonna be on that list.
You Coxsone & I know that Rodigan is not a parasite, so does many reggae legends & fraternity who have endorsed & validated him over the years. It's a personal thing with Coxsone & unfortunately it reflects very badly on the rasta!
fair point boss but Coxsone too had some good points... the revolution that is Reggae & the heroes of Jamaican music should be bigger than average pop icons. But Babylon is burning and unity is the key!!
I agree, the problem is we live in a world where people will still keep ignorance alive and to be fair, it ain't coming from the down to earth these days
Sonidelite Powell all I have ever heard is roddigan total humble and passionate.. never a big up himself. simply a true lover of the music and culture... I think that a positive impact...
Sir David,have you maybe ,just maybe,considered a show in Zimbabwe? Robert Marley came and had a show on our Independance Day ,with Reggae and Dancehall a MASSIVE influence ,with ChillSpot Records spearheading this dispensation,artists like Likkle Art,Libho,Enzo Ishall,Bazooka (Dr Ribhi Riddim) all products of the music from the land of Wood and Water!!!1love,peace and harmony
sound systems must have brought some real unique flavor all of their own back in the day when tech was less advanced and less uniform
Looking forward to catching this man at Fal Reggae fest next month, wot a G!
Absolute legend!
This should of to be teached at a certain level at the school...I m not from the UK but this is knowledge...
