Solid Foundation : An oral history of reggae
Oral history of reggae - Book - by David Katz
(2024)
Solid Foundation is the definitive history of Jamaica's holy music:
reggae in all its forms, from the earliest ska and rock steady pioneers
to the dancehall and reggae revival stars of the twenty-first century.
Woven together into an engrossing narrative, this is an extensive
history charting the progression and development of the music, with all
the glorious highlights and the controversies and feuds in between.
First published in 2003 and including interviews with over 200 of the
genre's key artists, Solid Foundation has been revised and updated with
abundant new material and an introduction by award-nominated novelist,
Jacqueline Crooks, reissued as part of White Rabbit's Deep Cuts series.
'The definitive history of reggae told through exclusive interviews
with the genre's greatest innovators.' - Sunday Herald'Solid Foundation
goes the extra yard to become a defining text, with Katz interviewing
virtually every survivor from the island's 60s and 70s music scenes...it
is a necessary work.' - The Wire'Solid Foundation is a welcome addition
to the narrow shelf of books that move beyond simplistic views of
reggae.' - Record Collector
