Round 2: ROCKERS
From Howard
J:
For my Rockers selection, I have chosen Pocket Money by The Gladiators
a simple tale of conscious, and pure Rockers Style.
the uncomplicated nature of the track & the manner in which the morality
of this song is conveyed speaks for itself.
the galloping drum beat and the piercing voice of Albert Griffiths. a
long time personal favorite.
more a peasants dish than a grand feast, I felt compelled to send in the
Gladiators to do battle on my behalf in this epic sound clash.
For the Record, my definition of ROCKERS is a style of drumming that came
onto the scene in the mid to late 70’s popularized by Sly Dunbar at
Channel One.
A double drumbeat, militant sound.
Enjoy.
