Eine musikalische Reise ins goldene Zeitalter der jamaikanischen Musik. Zum ersten Mal nach 40 Jahren kommen die Musikerinnen und Musiker der Rocksteady-Ära in Kingston zusammen, um ihren grossartigen Sound auferstehen zu lassen und ihre Geschichte zu erzählen. Tonaufnahmen im ursprünglichen Tuff-Gong-Studio, seltene Archivbilder und Gespräche mit den Künstlern zu Hause und an historischen Orten zeichnen ein farbiges Bild der legendären Rocksteady-Zeit. Begleitet von zahlreichen Hits und Evergreens wie "By the Rivers of Babylon", "The Tide is High" und "You Don't Love Me Anymore (No No No)", werden die Gründer dieses grossen musikalischen Erbes, zu denen auch Bob Marley gehörte, vorgestellt.

  • Rock Steady; The Roots of Reggae

    Written on 02. December 2010 by Greg Orvis.

    This film is completely amazing its in entirety. The interview with Rita Marley is worth the entire price of the film; indeed, its priceless for anyone who likes reggae, rocksteady, or any other jamaican sub-genre; its also good for anyone who is simply interested in jamaican culture. This is a heartfelt documentary that will leave you in tears.

    This customer review refers to an alternative version, which is no longer available.

    This film is one-of-a-kind. Monumental in its entirety. The interview with Rita Marley alone is worth the price of the dvd. For anyone interested in reggae, rocksteady, or the various jamaican musical sub-genres. Or simply for anyone interested in jamaican history and culture.
