Leroy Sibbles (of the Heptones) was one of the best musicians of the Rock Steady/Reggae era of the sixties and seventies. A composer, Lead Vocalist, Bassist, arranger, and much more.

You guys are doing real good work on documenting the history of our culture. Keep it up. 🙏🏽

[@barryquinnell3108]

Fascinating insight from Mr Sibbles perspective

[@_unopablo]

Pay this man his Royalties

[@WellyWonder1]

Real talk. These musicians got nothing from the Publishing or Royalties. Alot of these classics ended up being sold to big music Corporations, and these classics are being used in Commercials and soundtracks. Disgusting shame

[@KSPTVMedia]

Leroy ah di best. My good brethren

[@obellinfantie]

These artists were all taken advantage of; it's a crying shame they didn't get the financial benefits, and comfortable lifestyle in their later years, that their talents deserved. Reggae music had never sounded better or had more to say than it did in the days of the Heptones & Paragons etc.

[@shattaclevewright4379]

That great catalog of music sits there waiting for the world to discover it. I always wondered why that era of music as good as it is didn't really do that great financially. Now I know, the spell of GREED have to be broken....Prophet inna real life

[@didi33333]

Saw Heptones in concert many times. Good memories

[@RootsDaughter41926]

10% music, 90% business... and why so many of the greats died paupers.

but they share such treasure of songs to uplift us thu hardship loneliness sadness. celebration festivities every old time songs is a reminder of a blue print of our lives god bless jamaica and her remarkable musician.

[@joaovillardequeirozneto3846]

But the sound engineer, the guy who gave Studio1 that up leveled streetwise, rootsy bass sound, had a name, Sylvan Morris the original dub specialist.

[@56postoffice]

One example of the great riddims Leroy was responsible for (too many to mention) is the great *"Mean Girl"* which was sung by Larry Marshall, the bassline by Sibbles. That is one of the most iconic Studio One riddims, which Joseph Hoo Kim of Channel One Studios lifted to produce the Mighty Diamonds' hit *"I Need A Roof."* The great Sugar Minott responded at Studio One on the original riddim with the same song, also a hit. Always rated Leroy and the Heptones for years. Their Studio One output is immense.

[@joaovillardequeirozneto3846]

Jackie Mitoo was also a riddim master of the old times

[@celticgodsoriginal]

Bob Andy tell me seh Jackie Mitoo was the real producer at Studio One, the one who came up with the arrangements and orchestrations for most of the Golden Age hits for Mr Dodd. Bob tell me some things about Mr Sibbles too...

[@BedStuyBro]

Lol. I'm curious. 🤔 Can you share?

[@joaovillardequeirozneto3846]

Jackie Mitoo I do agree with you sir

[@illone3522]

Even to this day nuff people don't know the difference between the Artiste, Producer, Engineer etc etc. Especially with today's technology where one man can literally stay home and do everything.

Rotted!! They(heptones) made so many great songs...pay the man!

[@willieluncheonette5843]

Dodd and his studio certainly gets credit for being a center of such a wealth of great music but his fiddling around with original master tapes when they were reissued for CD is a minus. So is the poor sound quality of some of those first CD's.

[@khalidrogers4310]

Yep. diminished the legacy a little bit with not being careful enough with how things were done. Can't take it back once it hits the market.

[@stevefuegner1876]

So many people sadly will never be introduced to the great musicians and music of Jamaica such AMAZING history from such a tiny island..

[@khalidrogers4310]

@@stevefuegner1876 At least Jamaica does a great job of chronicling the careers of their legends.. Sadly some other Caribbean countries often have their legends unrecorded so their music isn't fossilized.

[@joaovillardequeirozneto3846]

@@khalidrogers4310 nice way to reffer, “fossilized”!! I dig it

Should have asked about Larry Marshall about the role he played along side himself!!

Come on man! Add subtitles or something, I cant here the questions being asked! Good content, poor production!
