Great post, glad you made it here and brought your friends. I agree, there's much more melding and fusion between different music genres, and reggae was certainly exploited in the 80s by a number of bands - the Police were one, the Clash were another, although they sometimes ruined a good tune :)
Stake your #jahm, you might want to take a little holiday in Negril (I'm sure @bingbabe would love it, too)!
I don't have much, but it is staked. I went to Montego Bay in 1998 and almost go talked into visiting a Ganga Farm and having my valuables removed from me. It was a close call. I was a naive bugger then.
Classic @slobberchops. Sounds like one for the Chronicles.
It's bloody embarrassing.. those guys are super smooth talkers.
