Rocksteady Tonight's Podcast

Episode 101! Bet you thought I quit if you don't listen live.  But noooooo just been feeling lazy and loving it. This show goes back to the day before St. Patrick's Day. I caught up with my brother from another mother, Ernest. We had some coffee, quite a few in-fact and he was showing me some killer dub. Historically I am not a dub guys, but I really enjoyed what we were jamming on. So I figured I would try my hand and a Dub show. So while you might think my dubbing with E might be a reference some illicit narcotics nahhhh - Clean and sober and hanging with Ernest, whom I owe a mighty Thank you to for showing me some great tunes as he always does.  Cheers and enjoy !

Hey Rude Boys and Rude Girls hope all is well.  Things are chugging along like they always do albeit a little slower these days. This episode we say to a great man, that being Greg Lee of Hepcat who was taken from this world. While he may be gone, his music will live on with us forever. With that being said I need to say that my days are a little fuller I still try to do Rocksteady Tonight live on Sundays on Boot Boy Radio. Though they are making it here less and less often. I find the motivation I had to do the show initially has waned and the support I once had has disappeared. So, it is great thought and consideration I have decided to conclude Rocksteady Tonight after this year. It's been a great ride but the last stop is quickly approaching. Hope you have all enjoyed the trip.

Its been a while since I have updated you all here.  Truth is after I get the live show done I am usually pretty done.  Plus the time I would normally sped doing this at home is spent doing other things. And because I have always been all about the quality of the show, posting suffered.  But from now of I will try to forgo the the quality as long as the music continues to be amazing.  For now enjoy Episode 95 a well rounded show of music from throughout the genre.

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 through friendship or music. Most of all my heart goes out to his daughters and partner. This show is dedicated to the memory of Gregory Lee, there is a GoFundMe to help offset the costs for his family, donate if you can: https://www.gofundme.com/f/gregory-lee-memorial-fun Rest in Power Greg Lee - Your music will play of forever Listen Live on www.BootBoyRadio.net  Sunday          (6:00 pm - 8:00 pm EST - 00:00 - 22:00 GMT)  (Rocksteady Tonight Live) Wednesday  (7:00 pm - 9:00 pm EST - 00:00 - 02:00 GMT)  (Paddy Rock Live) As always thanks for listening Rocksteady Tonight is available iTunes: The Playlist is as follows: Hub City Stompers   Where's My Hooligans Hepcat   Dance Wid' Me Two Tone Club   True and Big Love The Hotknives   Bloody Beautiful Smooth Beans   Don't Let It Go The Busters  Shape The World Spicy Roots   Ska My No.1 Skarface   Bye finito Scrapy   Back Outta Jail The Hotknives   Communication Mr. Review   Buf Buf The Frits   I Don't Want to Live Alone PorkPie   Hands Go Numb The Dropsteppers   Foolish Pride Alpha Boy School   Rudeboy The Rocksteady Conspiracy   Where Is My Train The Delegators   Be Good to Me Too Many Crooks   Part-Time Girl (Live) Mango Wood   Ah Reggae Mango Wood   One and All The Hotknives   W.L.N.
