Dynamite - Tommy McCook & The Supersonics

[56postoffice]

I have on Duke Reid 7".......tuff version to Hopeton Lewis's "Boom Shak-A-Lacka" 1970

[africanrudieboy]

qué gran video, me emociono con este señor temazo de rocksteady

[armador5]

son los skatalites o los supersonics??¡¡¡¡ GOD BLESS YOU ALL¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[buba2mx]

@armador5 deben ser y lo mas seguro es que sean los supersonics, te darás cuenta que no esta Lester Sterling, Lloyd Brevett, Ken Stewart, aunque no se si Jackie Mittoo si aparece ahí; aun así una voz (q a mi parecer esta sobre puesta) dice "Skatalites" lo cual me párese un error por las razones antes mencionadas.

[DoctorRoncabossa]

@buba2mx La voz en off es Mikey Dread, este video pertenece a los documentales "Deep Roots Music" que hizo la BBC en los 80. Son 7 en total e intentan explicar la historia de la música jamaiquina. El de las teclas es Winston Wright, y si la banda se llama Supersonics. Yo tampoco entiendo por que Mikey Dread dice que son los skatalites :S , podriamos preguntarle! tiene un canal en youtube! youtube com / mikige1

[heichstrolz]

does anybody know the trompet chords ?

wasnt able to find them on google..

PLEASE HELP ME :D thx...

[NiceWeakend]

@heichstrolz The chords are right there in the video. When the different horns play different notes at the same time. Twat

[LuizaBelmont]

The best!

[zephyr9ne]

TxTFamGuy1 - you sent me in the right direction. googleing " professor Geoff Palmer's The forgotten Dissora" explains my mystery. Not the kind of history I was hopeing to have associated with my home town but history none the less. Thank You zephyr9ne

[zephyr9ne]

Great Music ! Does anyone have any history on his name ? I am from McCook,Ne (named after a General McCook) zephyr9ne

[TxTFamGuy1]

@zephyr9ne Probably had a Scottish ancestor in the British military who ended up in Jamaica.

[CLOACAband]

can anyone tell me if this recording right here was sold at all,i have a Tommy McCook recording but it is quite a bit slower than this one..

[rudeboynmypot]

This is the B side of BOOM Sha ka laka on the Duke Reid label.

[MtaaniNairobi]

Tommy McCook is a True Legend R.I.P., A friend of mine told me that when he was a kid he always thought Saxophones were just for band Idiots until he began listening to reggae. Now this guy plays most of Burning spear songs, Brass sections on both Alto & Tenor really good.
