Rocksteady: The Roots Of Reggae (Trailer)
Featuring Hopeton Lewis, Judy Mowatt, Ken Boothe, Leroy Sibbles, Marci Griffiths, U-Roy, The Tamlins and more.
This movie just opened in the Tdot, not sure if it playing in NYC. The premise, that the "remaining great singers and musicians of Jamaica's Golden Age of music, Rocksteady, come together after 40 years to record an album of their greatest hits, to perform together again at a reunion concert in Kingston, and to tell their story", is kind of like a reggae version of The Buena Vista Social Club.
