But we are going to start things off with a tribute to Frederick Nathanial Hibbert, better known as Toots Hibbert, singer for Toots and the Maytals.
“Toots” passed away last Saturday which is a week ago from air time but only a few days when we started producing this show. And tributes galore have been aired on radio shows for this soulful ball of energy of a singer that started out in the ska era and coined the next incarnation with his song “Do the Reggae”. Why are we eulogizing a reggae artist on a Punk show? Because Toots had an impact on the early punk artists like the Clash. I got to see Toots at the Concert Hall and it was insane as the 60 year old he jumped from start to finish in rude boy style. And he was still performing at the time of his sudden illness.
I am going to start out with a song that everyone has been playing. This is Pressure Drop as covered by the Clash on “Black Market Clash”.
