Roscoe Gordon - No More Doggin'

Great record...and I really like that turntable!!!

There are a lot of songs that influenced the birth of ska, rocksteady & reggae. This song is obviously one of them. I could cite my top five:

Fats Domino - Be My Guest
Roscoe Gordon - No More Doggin
Billy Stewart Billy's Heartache
Chris Kenner - Sick & Tired
Dave Bartholomew - The Monkey

Everybody knows this song isn't ska, but the guitar shuffle sounds like that.

Thanks for posting!!!

ska? sounds more like blues, sometimes, and sometimes like rock & roll

Guys are giving this guy credit for inventing reggae? This isn't ska and it ain't reggea, it's on beat not off beat, but I see the connection, however, he isn't even the first to do a beat like this, no way , no how, Blind Wille Mctell did it long before, as did Robert Johnson.

you got that totally right

you should take into account and offset your DC power with an appropriate converter as European equipment will reproduce recordings at an inaccurate speed due to the slight voltage difference.

the song is called "Booted" from 1951 and came out on Chess Records outta Chicago.
a cuckold masterpiece!

thanks, I appreciate it. I've been trying to find it on the computer but not luck :/

Getcha some vinyl!

it'is the first ska of the human history
