Tony Rebel - Exclusive Interview at StingRay Records 2017

Patrick Barrett, 15 January 1962, Manchester, Jamaica, West Indies. Rebel started out as singer, winning local talent competitions as Papa Tony or Tony Ranking on Destiny Outernational, Thunderstorm, Wha Dat and Sugar Minott’s Youth Promotion sound systems, but he is perhaps better known as one of the few dreadlocked ‘cultural’ DJs of the ragga era. His first release was ‘Casino Gambling’ on the MGB label and he also recorded tracks for Delroy ‘Callo’ Collins and Shocking Vibes, but he began to fully develop as an artist while at Penthouse Records. He released ‘Fresh Dee-Jay’, ‘Music Fraternity’ and ‘Mandella Story’ before he worked with Cutty Ranks on Die Hard. The album contained two of his first hits, ‘The Armour’ and ‘Instant Death’. Despite their confrontational fervour, Rebel’s spiritual approach and melodic singing style were unique. Rebel had further hits in 1990 with ‘Fresh Vegetable’, ‘DJ Unity’ (with Macka , ‘The Herb’, ‘War And Crime’ and ‘Hush’ (for Bobby Digital). He worked with several different producers between 1991 and 1992, including Exterminator, Star Trail and the Two Friends label, where he worked with Anthony Red Rose (‘Gun Talk’) and Judy Mowatt (‘Guilty’). Rebel With A Cause was released on Penthouse in 1992. The rootsy follow-up Rebellious was produced by Sky High, and included duets with Half Pint and Garnett Silk. ‘Chatty Chatty Mouth’ was another success with Penthouse but ‘Reggae On Top’ was recorded for Steely And Clevie. He signed to Columbia Records for 1993’s Vibes Of The Times, and the Bobby Digital production, ‘Sweet Jamaica’, was chosen for the soundtrack to the same year’s hit movie Cool Runnings.

Sir Lloyd Coxsone Speaks Out On Dubplate Specials [UNCUT] 2020

Lloyd Blackwood better known as Sir Lloyd Coxsone is an influential figure in the growth of the UK reggae scene, Lloyd Coxsone left his home in Morant Bay, Jamaica, and arrived in the UK in 1962, settling in south-west London and setting up his first sound system, Lloyd The Matador. This venture floundered due to inexperience and Coxsone joined the UK-based Duke Reid sound, but he eventually left in 1969, taking some of that operation’s personnel with him. He went on to form his own sound system, adopting the name of the biggest sound in Jamaica at the time, and also, pointedly, the main rival to Jamaica’s Duke Reid, Sir Coxsone. Coxsone sound soon gained a strong following that eventually led to his residency at the famous London nightclub the Roaring Twenties, in Carnaby Street. Throughout the 70s Sir Coxsone Sound’s success lay with maintaining the sound to rigorous standards, playing the most exclusive dub plates direct from Jamaica, and keeping abreast of trends within the music. Rather than specializing in one particular style, Coxsone Sound offered music for all tastes.

Coxsone, like other sound men, also expanded into the record business, licensing music from Jamaica at first, then trying his hand at his own productions using local UK artists. In 1975 he enjoyed huge success, and kickstarted the UK lovers rock phenomenon in the process, with his production of ‘Caught You In A Lie’ - originally a US soul hit by Robert Parker - featuring the vocal talents of 14-year-old south London schoolgirl Louisa Mark. That same year he issued one of the best dub albums of the era, King Of The Dub Rock, which featured dubwise versions of his own productions and those of Gussie Clarke, mixed in part at King Tubby’s. Other notable records appeared on his Tribesman and Lloyd Coxsone Outernational labels and elsewhere during the late 70s and early 80s, including Fabian’s Jack Ruby -produced ‘Prophecy’, ‘Love And Only Love’ and ‘Voice Of The Poor’ by Fred Locks. Others included ‘Stormy Night’ and ‘Homeward Bound’ by the Creation Steppers, a version of the Commodores’ ‘Easy’ by Jimmy Lindsay (many of which are available on 12 The Hard Way) and many more. During the mid-80s Coxsone handed control of his sound over to the younger elements in his team, notably Blacker Dread, and a new breed of DJs. Blacker released his own productions by the likes of Fred Locks, Frankie Paul, Mikey General, Sugar Minott, Michael Palmer, Don Carlos, Earl Sixteen and Coxsone DJ, Jah Screechy. Recently, as interest in the roots music of the 70s has increased, Coxsone has emerged from his semi-retirement to stand again at the controls of his sound.
