Brilliant thread - if someone could turn it into a spotify playlist that would be great!

Is it something about growing up at a certain time in West London that gives many of us a love of this music? For me it does not transport me to The West Indies but instead being taken to Shepherds Bush market to buy new school shoes?

Living in Clarendon Rd W11 aged 12,
My 16 year old elder sister in the room above
had got a new boyfriend.
He happened to be London west Indian.

A couple of nights later I heard this strange
hypnotic music coming through the floorboards.
It was this:

I was hooked for life.

Could the name of the thread be changed to "Ska & Vintage Reggae"?

Or just "Riddim tread"
