Reggae Mon

I filled in for the lovely Lux Yao at her Vevlet set on Saturday 3/14 and rolled out the reggae set I've been sitting on for a bit. Everyone looooooved it and wanted to marry it. Yay! This set was largely inspired by and contained many songs from the Jonny Greenwood Is the Controller album - if you'd like a nice, curated intro to reggae from one of the dudes in Radiohead then I highly recommend it.

1. Linval Thompson "Dread Are the Controller"
2. Charmers "Rasta Never Fails"
3. Pioneers "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone"
4. Desmond Dekker & The Aces "Beautiful and Dangerous"
5. Dandy Livingstone "Rudy, A Message To You"
6. Phyllis Dillon "Woman of the Ghetto"
7. Marica Aitken "I'm Still In Love (12" mix)"
8. Peter Tosh "I'm The Toughest"
9. King Tubby "King at the Controls"
10. Derrick Harriott "Let Me Down Easy"
11. The Paragons "The Tide is High"

13. The Chosen Few "Don't Break Your Promise"
14. Gregory Isaacs "Never Be Ungrateful (12" mix)"
15. Torjan "It Comes and Goes"
16. The Mighty Diamonds "Pass the Kouchie"
17. The Maytals "54-46 That's My Number"
