documentary of the making of a traditional album in harry j studio with sly and robbie with some of the greatest living reggae artist, shot in kingston jamaica
Scully Zimms is trully a legend! Best percussionist in the island, by far, followed by Sticky of course (the other dread at beginning of the video) Bleessed love!
Foundation singer and player of instruments, Skully began his musical carrer in the early 60's in the duo Bunny & Skully. He then went on to record solo for Coxsone/Studio One with hits like "See dem a come" or "Bye Bye Baby" in 1968. Close to Count Ossie & the Mystic Revelation of Rastafari he is known as one of Jamaica's most gifted percussionist and has collaborated to an impressive amount of LPs... Solid Foundation!!
I admire his artistry--he's not just beating on that thing, he's getting all sorts of interesting and soulful sounds. Makes me happy, thanks for sharing it!
As a youth growing up on Whitehall Avenue, I used to see this man at a tailor man shop by the name of Baugh, and I didn't know that He was such a great Musician/Singer. He was part of of Singing Duo called "Bunny & Skully"...He was "Skully" AKA "Skully Zoot Simms"...RIP Legend.
it looks like a small wooden djembe, with the hour glass shape. They have it tuned up and sounding like a little bingi drum though..man, this old schooler knows what he is doing, look at those hands....epic
As long as you put feelings into your music, the result as to be great. It's what makes the music intersting, like every other kind of art! Skully rocks once again! No mystery then why the reggae was so intense back in the 70's... INSPIRATION
Marvellous! Great playing... Shows great musicianship, and delivers a direct line with JAH or whatever you might call your source of inspiration if you're not a rastaman yourself
I'm still searching for words to explain how I feel; this man is amazing! Does he have his own CD and where can I purchase it? This brother is truly blessed. Wow, I can listen to him all day
i saw this and loved it that much and the other clips that i just had to get the album and dvd after a long search i finally found it. Thanks for that as ive long been a fan of Scully (also known as Zoot Sims) and also Horace Andy but had missed this release somehow.
@@soniaharrison1016 The question is, where was the Rasta Brotherhood? The answer is that in Jamaica everything is over and no one cares about what Rasta culture really was, even on that island selfishness and nihilism has won. JAH guide

He understands every note on that drum. He makes it look so effort-less. He is a joy to watch!!

He actually began in 1953 but gains prominence in the early 60s

Legendary SKULLY,trueborn RASTAMAN, died in total poverty and loneliness - a shame for our Rastafari Family.May JAH forgive us!
JAH guide
Wow, but not hard to believe Jamaica does not support the legends on any level. This man was so talented how the hell did he die destitute. SMH.
@@soniaharrison1016 The question is, where was the Rasta Brotherhood?
The answer is that in Jamaica everything is over and no one cares about what Rasta culture really was, even on that island selfishness and nihilism has won.

neva forget him!
Excellent!!!
As Good As It Gets Horace Bongo Man Andy

This is Livin It Up!
You're right! That's Scully actually -- a percussionist playing on a Horace Andy (singer) record.
Sad to say that Skully died on Saturday may he rest in peace.
This man is actually dead?
Reggae save thi World...againt fascism & totalitarism. One race!!!
