Again it's been a couple minutes since I posted, a lot has been going on in my life and 2023 has not been the kindest year to me, more on that another time.  Anyway back in May we celebrated Mother's Day here in North America.

One of those venues was the Magic Bag. While the Magic Bag still rocks there isn't as much Ska these days, and Detroit it a bit far from Pennsylvania. But I did reach into my magic bag and pull out an old episode to post.

And admittedly one thing I hate to be is willingly ignorant. So I named this episode Unapologetically Awesome, simply because I don't speak any Latin languages. I can't even pretend well. But this music is so amazing that I have to share it now and always.

They have been moved up by 30 mins, so if you listen live, please note the new time change. So to kick off the fact that this is now 2 hours, I went off the cuff and did something very chill and very different for this show.  As you may recall I know even less about Dub than I do 2-Tone, but I know it's chill.

For the longest time I was not down with Ska tunes that did not have lyrics. As I worked my way backwards through 3rd Wave Ska in the tail end of the 90's I started to appreciate it a little bit. Well I appreciate it plenty fine today, but simply do not spend enough time doing so. So today's show it all Instrumental tunes from the 60's all the way up to today.

We all found the strength and determination we maybe knew existed. Would found the ability to persevere in the face of adversity. We saw turmoil and change, heard promises and lies.  Most of us come out of 2020 better people, but sadly some of us did not come out at all. This episode we mourn the heavy losses of the last year in our music community.  Performers who, while gone, have left us with legacies and music for generations to come. Rest In Power and thank you for all you have left us! ...2021-04-091h 33Rocksteady Tonight\'s PodcastRocksteady Tonight's PodcastRocksteady Tonight - Episode #65: Roots and CultureThis weeks Episode comes on the heels of post Covid.  I was stricken with the plague, it kept me down a while and while it was mild it had taken me a little while to fully bounce back.  But I think it's safe to say I have arrived.

Back in the 90's when Ska was rocking on all 8 cylinders another genre was making a comeback right behind it, this was Swing. I never enjoyed Swing quite as much as Ska, but I sure loved the dancing and the styles, especially all those legs! Gin and Juice and Cigarettes and a horn section was the right recipe for a good night out. The Swing Revival has largely fizzled out again in North America, but it was hopping for a little while and it was fun.

I suppose with the amount of legends we lost this year there is quite a lot of traditional Jamaican Music in my Best of this year. Our community took many blows and all of them hurt tremendously, but none more than the loss of Toots. I see there was a petition to have him added to this years Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it's about 50 years overdue, but everyone needs to respect him and his music. Anyway again this it my Best of from Spotify and as previously explained this is...2021-01-222h 01Rocksteady Tonight\'s PodcastRocksteady Tonight's PodcastRocksteady Tonight - Episode #62: The Best of 2020, Part 2So it's no secret that 2020 was a crazy ass year! Between the Politics and Covid and every other little thing that could go wrong and did the only normalcy I was left with (and a lot of you) was music. So I took advantage and listened the Hell out of everything I could find. I put so many hours on Spotify it borders on ridiculous, but that's what got me through the year. So this Podcast here, while not my best of Part 2 of my year in review starting at the bottom.  But if we are being honest, when i...2021-01-222h 04Rocksteady Tonight\'s PodcastRocksteady Tonight's PodcastRocksteady Tonight - Episode #61: Skaristmas with Rocksteady TonightSo Christmas has come again.

Tunes, but you have the usual complications when doing such a thing. This time we said to Hell with what the idiots thing, plus we had the blessing of the Grand Pooba of Boot Boy Radio.

We carried over a lot of tune left over tunes from previous shows. When we played it out it seemed to be very politically motivated.  While we have our opinions, which very likely mirror your own. This is a place of music so we try to check the opinions at the door, we all enters as friends and exit as friends.

This was a special episode, so I jumped #49 to get this out. With Toots Hibbert currently suffering from Covid 19, and his family requesting prayers this needed to be done today. I know not everyone is religious so praying may not be in the cards. Everyone is a fan of Toots though, so by playing my music and singing it out loud we can generate some positive mojo to help pull The King through this most difficult time.

So this time out Rick and I put together an awesome show that features the word skinhead in every show to illustrate just how closely knit these 2 really are.  There should not be any racism, discrimination or hatred in any scene period.
