I'm glad I posted on this. It marks my first meeting with a dear friend.
Tonight begins the Reggae Marathon on KKUP 91.5 Cupertino. Dial it up live 'ere http://player.streamguys.com/kkup/sgplayer3/player.php
KKUP has a regular Friday night Reggae show, one of my favs, Robert Rankin's Solid Foundation. It's been going for years and has marked so many Friday night launches into the weekend.
Right now, I'm in the middle of DJ Spleece's two-hour fundraiser set. He's on the 1&2s until midnight.
As I've mentioned several times on DOOM, Spleece has become a good friend, along with his wife, DJ Aye Que Linda. We crossed paths regularly in the reggae scene, at festivals and shows, and I went to a lot of his local dancehalls at Bocci's, the Sandbar, and most recently the Catalyst. I've been to their home for private parties. I can't begin to count how many times I've heard him spin. He's a bannerman for the reggae scene here in the Rasta Cruz.
Man, I miss mi reggae. I have a huge collection of reggae CDs - hundreds maybe. My collection of rare Bob Marley CDs alone is dozens deep, collected over many years. But I haven't been listening to them very much. I usually listen when I drive, but I barely drive nowadays. Plus it's no substitute for that huge bass boom, that thunderous sound of subwoofers, riddem so massive dat I&I feel in mi marrow. I'm listening to Spleece's show streaming off my laptop, with a single cheap earbud. It's not the same. It's not even close.
This feckin pandemic is bringing me down.
Nuh cyan wait til me back inna dancehall.
