All day today, FUV Essentials salutes reggae. The loping, skanking beat is irresistible on a summer Friday!
Call it ska, soca, blue-beat, rock steady, two-tone — all kinds of Caribbean music is woven into rock and roll.
Name some early roots-rock-reggae favorites for Question Of The Day and I'll play a set in the 9 a.m. hour.
PLAYED:
Harry Belafonte: Day-O (Banana Boat Song)
