The all-star line-up features Stranger Cole, Hopeton Lewis, the I Threes, Derrick Morgan, Gladstone Anderson, Leroy Sibbles, Ernest Ranglin, Hux Brown, Ken Boothe, U Roy, and many more. This documentary is essential viewing, not to be missed!

Guest DJ Mossman

Moss “Mossman” Raxlen (Montreal, Quebec, Canada), the musical director of the film, is a longtime Jamaican music collector and aficionado. He’s built a heavy collection from his frequent travels to Jamaica and record digging at home and abroad. Come hear his top selection of Jamaican gems at the Rocksteady Lounge!
