The Harder They Come (1972) - Clip: Sweet And Dandy

[@bluesman6891]

My mom was in this scene as an extra, standing beside Jimmy Cliff, while enjoying Toots and Maytal. RIP, Toots

[@maxineedgar3862]

I have watched this film over 100 times, my kids have watched it and my grandkids will no doubt watch it. But i read through the comments on here and had to go back and see your mum at 2.10. Your mum is a legend and she is beautiful. What a privilege. It would be good to have heard her account of that entire experience. This is a cult film with a global following. At 55 I have been watching this film in the UK from my eyes were at my knees, it is part of our heritage. The real life Ivan 'Rygin' was apparently my father's family.

[@bluesman6891]

@@maxineedgar3862 thank you, sir. You are too kind. My mother told me that she once dated Jimmy Cliff and my grandmother described Jimmy as a real gentleman.

[@ferretypherret123]

One of the best film soundtracks ever

[@jasonwicks3010]

I can't handle this. This man and his music has brought me such joy. Whenever I'm down Sweet & Dandy kills all that. Will miss you forever my brother.

[@teeand1925]

I feel the same way I've mourned with this music and I've celebrated with this music.

[@misslou3624]

Yes, was sobbing on sweet and dandy today, just sobbing

Look how young they are, full of optimism and inocense

[@krampusk5699]

RIP to a cultural legend. His name will live in. Big up papa toots

[@eric_langat]

I could watch this movie over and over again without ever getting bored.

[@kwamebarrett9575]

I can't stop listening to this song. Brings me back to the days in Jamaica bating in the Bath pan outside while these artist were cutting the track. Music filled the air always. Miss JA

[@danhenderson6311]

I was thinking the same right now.

[@teeand1925]

Yesterday (sept 12 2020) was my sisters wedding day its a family thing that this song plays at our wedding. Toots and the maytals were constantly playing in my home growing up. I fond out that toots passed once I got home from the wedding. This music has such an impact on my life im truly heartbroken. Forever and ever in our hearts and minds rest in power toots.

[@emma15437]

Oh no! So Toots is gone? I still cannot fathom this! A true legend and pioneer!!! Jamaica has lost an illustrious son; the world has lost a true entertainer. RIP Toots 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@maggieedwards3951]

😭😔🙏🏽🕊👑🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

[@oranebrown2169]

😐🤒😢. No one makes music like this here again, his music is culturally Jamaican soul.

[@somekid338]

Still makes us smile even from the other side. May he rest in peace

[@karlschneider9479]

My favorite Toots song of all time. My old group opened for Toots a few times in the 90's.

[@richmod]

Deeply sad today , a true Jamaican legend has left us ... RIP Toots ...😢

[@lennywebb6740]

Toots was the kind of man that lit the whole room up as soon as he walked in. I got that feeling seeing him on stage. This man and his music have brought me, my wife and kids so much joy over the years. I can't believe he has gone. RIP Legend x

[@jovinjoseph489]

Great song love it a lot used to hear these songs when I was a child in the80's

[@Polo876.]

I swear I watch this movie all the time my wife always asks why. And I told her this movie is my Roots and I will be watching this movie when am old and gray the songs in this movie are classic and will always be played. I never got. Chance to see toots live in concert but is music lift my vibes every time I play it is here it plays.

[@stevecityrocker]

This film lifts me up. The music is extraordinary. I’ve worn out several copies of the soundtrack. Been listening to it for at least 45 years. Cheers to you, mate. So happy that it’s essential part of your life. It’s essential to my life too, brother.

[@barrydavid5110]

Toots Hibbert gone to Shashamane Land. One of the last great reggae voices & the soundtrack to our youth. Fabulous live act, forever sounding sweet & dandy in all those great reggae anthems.💚💛❤🖤

[@ustheserfs]

maybe the most salient part of the film. the exuberance in toot's face is a sight.

[@westsidesmitty1]

This would set a dead man to dancing! And in the last seconds, you can hear the drums and they are going into the formidable- ''Pressure Drop'', one of the most ferocious songs ever recorded. The precious memories all this brings back...I could almost cry. Toots and the Maytals forever.

[@nisasmith3955]

Unbelievable! I've grown up on your music....pomp and pride, sweet and dandy, 54-46.... You were loved and respected by many. Rest in Peace.

[@dwayneclarke2197]

Timeless classic. Am in my early 30s n I will listen these songs over these modern crap

[@davnajda6828]

54/46 was my anthem when i was a little skinhead in norwich 1970 and that track resonates today still,boss man toots and his maytals.

[@troyf6734]

Takes me back to Saturday mornings cleaning up. Thank you mom for introducing good music to me. #riptoots

[@Jazzifiant]

They are historical legends. Period !!! R.I.P Toots 😣

[@troygaspard6732]

This film got the reggae scene as it was happening. This song and footage is golden.

[@jeeperssmith]

Although I didn't get to see Toots until he was an OG, I will always remember him this way: Young, Gifted, and Black. Thank you for everything

This movie was epic.

Beautiful song

[@jahnnysplash9712]

Toots, you left us this wailing song to wail for you in this time of your departure from this earth. I weep when I listen to this song. You will live forever in our hearts. ...... Johnny Splash (Nigeria)

[@Blazecenturion]

Toots Hibbert and the Maytal what a beautiful person, the happiness and joy of him singing Sweet & Dandy on the Harder They Come clip is truly mesmerising, melodic and effortless delivery. He is so humble, watching his concert performance he was always full of energy enjoying every moment when he performed. I just love the way he does his beautiful little dance move while singing Sweet and Dandy during that clip. I could watch that clip over and over again. You were the shooting star that always shined and entertained many generations who enjoyed your beautiful music. RiP Toots as you move on to your next eternal musical adventure.🙏🏾 ❤️❤️❤️

[@richardjalowik3366]

absolute brilliance

[@marksantosLbC]

Peace and Love on your journey to the next plain...thank you for making this world better with your sweet music.

[@tonyrebel63]

RIP Big fella, you will be missed.

[@Pulsonar]

I still get shivers down my spine when I see and hear the talent in this legendary film from the the early 70s. Jimmy Cliff, Toots and the Maytals, and every Tom, Dick and Harry had a part to play and they shone! still feels like Jamaicans were shortchanged here, so many extraordinary world class talented young people on that tiny Caribbean island. They can do anything! It’s a great pity so much politics, corruption in the way. RIP Nathaniel Frederick ‘Toots’ Hibbert.

[@maxschmidt6533]

Toots and his music will be remembered for ever. A true legend. RIP

[@altheawhyte2328]

From the beginning Toots of the Legendary Maytals demanded your attention with his voice and either keep you riveted or start your feet dancing. He started my feet RIP 💖

[@willwhite1575]

The one and only Maytals in their prime. So great because footage of the legends of Jamaican ska, rocksteady and early reggae is so rare - the This is Ska film aside. I remember playing I'll Never Grow Old on the decks at my 21st thirty years ago. Now I am old and the wonderful Toots is gone. Joyous and powerful to the end.

[@skjacobs6310]

this song is F-in amazing!!!! and love the movie too! I can listen to this endlessly!!!!!

[@adriennelara9037]

The world is a better place because Toots Hibbert was in it. I'm sad that we lost him so young, (damned COVID), but I'm so grateful that we have his music and legacy of talent.

[@heydude7568]

toots did NOT die of the fake covid virus

[@boybull]

@@heydude7568 right on my brother.. how to taint a truly great man's legacy by putting his death into the convid narrative. Nearly 3 years on I wonder how many of those that were gullible enough to fall for the planddemic BS are now feeling stupid and embarrassed and if they're not.. lost souls.

[@KingpinTBM]

Never got to meet my grandmother because she died at 53. Toots lived her life plus 24 years extra. I wouldn't class 77 as "young". My grandmother was young.
