520 1 $a"With interviews and comment from reggae legends and people on the ground, Lloyd Bradley takes up the story from the late 1950s, when sound systems and lawn dances were key to the development of ska." "As he charts the development of reggae Lloyd pays tribute to musicians, performers, producers, deejays and fans, revealing that above all it is the indomitable Jamaican spirit that has driven the development of the music - its tireless reinvention from ska to rock steady, reggae to roots to the new roots and dancehall of today."--Jacket.
