065 Bigmikeydread Reggae Radio presents The Steve Barrow Special – Part 1

admin — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 04:31:42 +0000

Steve Barrow has been collecting Jamaican music since 1962, before most people called Ska….. Ska!

Over the years Steve’s interest in Jamaican music has developed from collecting through to writing for Black Echoes, running his own record stores, compiling records for Island, Trojan, and his own label Blood and Fire records. He co-wrote the Rough Guide To Reggae, a bible for all Jamaican music fans. Amongst his close friends are people like Bunny Lee, Dennis Alcapone, Glen Brown, Lopez Walker, U-Roy and Trinity. He’s even recorded a toilet for Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry! He’s currently writing sleeve notes for Soul Jazz records and an upcoming release of some Dancehall Reggae music, related to Beth Kingston’s book ‘Dancehall’ that Soul Jazz brought out last year.

Bigmikeydread Reggae Radio had the honour of travelling up country to join Steve and his partner Sue at their house in Forest Gate, London, for an afternoon of chat, record playing, tea and biscuits. The ensuing interview spread over 4 hours of recording and will be presented in a number of parts for you to listen to. This is part 1. His insight and experience makes for essential listening for all Jamaican music fans. I know I learnt more from him in 5 hours than I have on my own in 5 years!

Background music comes from Blood and Fire releases.

Here is part – 1

The tracks included on this episode for your listening pleasure are:

Derrick Morgan – Sea Wave
Early B – History Of Jamaica

He’s even recorded a toilet for Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry!

If you want to know more about the Reggae scene in London from the 60s through to the present, or an insight into record label runnings from the 70s onwards, then this may make for essential listening.

Steve wrote for Black Echoes in the 1970s, ran his own record stores, compiled records for Island, Trojan, and later his own label Blood and Fire records. He co-wrote the Rough Guide To Reggae, a bible for all Jamaican music fans. Amongst his close friends are people like Bunny Lee, Dennis Alcapone, Glen Brown, Lopez Walker, U-Roy and Trinity.

I had the honour of travelling up country to join Steve and his partner Sue at their house in Forest Gate, London, for an afternoon of chat, record playing, tea and biscuits. The ensuing interview spread over 4 hours of recording and will be presented in a number of parts for you to listen to. This is the final part, part 2. His insight and experience makes for essential listening for all Jamaican music fans. I know I learnt more from him in 5 hours than I have on my own in 5 years!
