Right Right Time: The Summer Records Story
Posted by Li Robbins on Sep- 6-09 at 03:00 AMComments1Recommend8
When Pitchfork wrote that in the 1960s an incredible reggae scene began developing in Toronto it seemed "almost like the premise of some odd SCTV bit," it kind of exposed their ignorance of immigration in this country. But they meant well, so we forgive them. And they did go on to acknowledge how great the music that came out of that scene was.
Today, no SCTV quips -- just a celebration of the music that Jamaican immigrants to Toronto created back then. Right Right Time: The Summer Records Story is a special radio show about the guy who preserved some of that music, Jerry Brown, with his label Summer Records.
Right Right: The Summer Records Story is produced by someone who is an essential part of our own Radio 2 website team -- Ian Cauthery. (Multi talented -- a web guy, artist, writer, music aficionado.) Through today's show, Ian and host Shaun Dhani explore the rise (and fall) of Jerry Brown's studio out in Malton, Ont. (Yes, Pitchfork, admittedly that seems a slightly unlikely spot for great reggae.) The studio was visited by many reggae legends in its time, including Jackie Mittoo, Noel Ellis, Johnnie Osbourne, Stranger Cole, Leroy Sibbles, and Carl Dawkins.
