It hit us in the face last weekend and we decided to pay tribute to Robbie Shakespear today. The bass player\u00a0Robbie Shakespeare from\u00a0Sly Dunbar & Robbie Shakespeare passed away and the whole reggae world is mourining, but not only, we are all. Maybe you are not aware but you’ve heard their rythm machine many times, Sly on the drums and Robbie on the bass, going like a train,\u00a0tah dah dam, tah dah dam, tah dah dam..<\/em>. Jah love. Rest in Peace.<\/h2>\n

Sly Dunbar &\u00a0Robbie Shakespeare, the pair that gave\u00a0reggae rythm to the whole world, that very special reggae\/dub rythm they brought to the pop\/disco music of the 80’s. thanks to Chris Blackwell’s Compass Point studio in Bahamas.
