Rocksteady Tonight's Podcast

Episode 101! Bet you thought I quit if you don't listen live.  But noooooo just been feeling lazy and loving it. This show goes back to the day before St. Patrick's Day. I caught up with my brother from another mother, Ernest. We had some coffee, quite a few in-fact and he was showing me some killer dub. Historically I am not a dub guys, but I really enjoyed what we were jamming on. So I figured I...

Episode 100, here we are! I was expecting some big production, but this episode snuck up on me So here it is for you to enjoy. To be sure this is no stinker, it is a jam packed banger but chalked full of newer tunes and stuff new(er) to me. None the less I hope you enjoy it, I would love nothing more than to renew my love for this show and my love for the culture, the scene and the music is unbrea...

Hey Rude Boys and Rude Girls hope all is well.  Things are chugging along like they always do albeit a little slower these days. This episode we say to a great man, that being Greg Lee of Hepcat who was taken from this world. While he may be gone, his music will live on with us forever. With that being said I need to say that my days are a little fuller I still try to do Rocksteady Tonight live on...

Second show in a row, there won't be one next week as I will be attending Supernova Ska Festival. So I thought I would infuse today's show with some of the awesome acts you will find there.

If not enjoy your time there and celebrate a great festival, great people and some of the best music on the planet!  See...

Its been a while since I have updated you all here.  Truth is after I get the live show done I am usually pretty done.  Plus the time I would normally sped doing this at home is spent doing other things. And because I have always been all about the quality of the show, posting suffered.  But from now of I will try to forgo the the quality as long as the music continues to be amazing.  For now enjo...

So I realize the shows have been slow in being posted, it happens. But here is a new one for you all, from January of this year!  Don't let the date fool you though, it was a dynamite episode and I wasn't even whining that much! I promise I will try to get some older ones up and keep up with the newer ones too. I am just so OCD on quality and I have the breathy bullshit.  Anyway not gonna whinge,...

Its been a sad week with the passing if Gregory Lee. I started off a fan many years ago, but over the past few years he became a cherished friend, talking me through some pretty rough patches in life. I know he was much closer to many more of you. My heart goes out to everyone he touched either through friendship or music. Most of all my heart goes out to his daughters and partner. This show is de...

Hey there Rude Crew I trust all is well. 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. I was feeling a bit down after my mom passing, little did I know it was going to get worse. But you know I spun quite a few Rockstea...

When I lived in Canada, Detroit was where I went to see MANY shows, and during that time there was LOTS of ska going on. 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. I have been a little slow with the live shows because of...

One thing I have become painfully aware of is that my lack of knowledge as far as Latin American bands go is causing me to miss so much amazingly good music! 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 n...

To be honest I don't recall what the inspiration behind this show was? Think I was trying to some Rocksteady with some more modern influence, but not really sure...  Regardless the show is a banger.

Hey everyone, Here is one of my recent Sunday afternoon chill sessions. 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. So that's why to...
