  • Here's a rough cassette tape of David Rodigan's "Roots Rockers" reggae show on Capital Radio in London. Here he interviews Smiley Culture (RIP) with tracks from his debut album, so this tape dates from 1984 or 85. Then there are tracks from various artists, roots, digi, quite a bit of lovers tunes, and then back to Smiley Culture who says some quite enlightened words to finish off.
    It was recorded on a cheap tape so the sound isn't brilliant, but it is a good historic record of Smiley in his heyday. There are some strange and abrupt cuts, but that's just how it is - sorry! And Rodigan seems to be having trouble with the speed controls a couple of times!
    Thanks to everyone who has subscribed recently - it's truly appreciated :)

    I remember this interview. Used to listen to Roddy and tape his shows, with his "Roots Rockers Competition Time'. Smiley Culture RIP. Back when UK had DJ talent to rival Jamaica. Great, great upload. Oh by the way, the year is 1986, after hearing Echo Minott's "What The Hell", I thought "Yep, '86".

"you wanna lock the door, throw away the key coz thats a whats a stopping you from loving me - well whatever if you want shall me get.. whatever if you want shall me ge-e-e-t" any ideas anyone? also dubplate saying something like crips biscuit - rivit? I was only around 10 at the time so vague memories but my stepdad used to listen every sunday to reggaee in Southend on Sea, Essex.
