Reggae Scrapbook

Guiding us on this colorful book-length journey is one of the men who introduced reggae to America and helped rock the world with its syncopated beat, Roger Steffens. Through lectures, books, magazine articles, radio, and television, Steffens has shared his knowledge of reggae from coast to coast. He is the worlds premier archivist and collector of reggae memorabilia, and brings the best of his in-depth interviews with such reggae legends as Peter Tosh, Jimmy Cliff, and Toots Hibbert to this unique scrapbook. Covering topics such as Roots and Ska, Rock Steady, The Golden Age, Rockers, Digital and Dance Hall, and Internationalization, and supplemented with sidebar features on historic figures, styles, and events, Reggae Scrapbook demonstrates the bold statement made by the rise of this irresistible musical and social force.
