Details:
LOVERS ROCK...a romantic, R&B-influenced form of reggae, Lovers Rock
was a product of the U.K. reggae scene, becoming
popular in the late ''70s as mainstream roots reggae
increasingly devoted itself to social protest and
Rastafarian spirituality. From ska to reggae, Jamaican
music had long been influenced by American soul, but
lovers rock blurred the lines to a greater extent than
ever before, pairing the smooth sounds of Chicago and
Philly soul with reggae basslines and, to a greater or
lesser extent, rhythms. Teenage vocalist Louisa Marks
was the first British artist to score a lovers rock
hit with her 1975 single "Caught You in a Lie"; in the
years that followed, lovers rock became quite popular
among inner-city Britons looking for an alternative to
political reggae. While never quite prevalent in
Jamaica, lovers rock was adopted as an alternate style
by several major roots-reggae figures, including John
Holt, Gregory Isaacs, Dennis Brown, and Freddie
McGregor, who used it to broaden their repertoires and
appeal to wider audiences....We at BASSFIEND PRODUCTIONS encourage you to support the LOVERS ROCK MOVEMENT and listen to all 3 of the ROCKIN LOVERS series. Your satisfaction is guaranteed. Thanks for your support and remember...BASSFIEND RUN THE DANCEHALL!!!
