A film about the love affair between Jamaican and British Youth culture told through the prism of one the most iconic record labels in history, TROJAN RECORDS. Combining archive footage, interview and drama - RUDEBOY tells the story of Trojan Records by placing it at the heart of a cultural revolution that unfolded in the council estates and dancefloors of late 60's and early 70' Britain and how that period of immigration and innovation transformed popular music and culture. Told by a cast of legendary artists including Lee 'Scratch' Perry, Toots Hibbert, Ken Boothe, Neville Staple, Marcia Griffiths, Dave Barker, Dandy Livingstone, Lloyd Coxsone, Pauline Black, Derrick Morgan and more.

Comments

I am quite familiar with 1970s roots reggae and dub music, like King Tubby and Augustus Pablo - I have a lot of that kind of thing in my music collection. But I am not as familiar with the earlier music of Jamaica. Nice to see something like this here!

I grabbed it because you mentioned in another comment that listening to it, or even seeing the word "reggae" would throw you into an indefatigable week long homicidal rage.

I think it backfired, dammit. Your fault!
