I had the honour to experience the Jah Shaka soundsystem at the Dub Club in London in 1994. Just one turntable, an echochamber and all albums in virgin white sleeves. More than just a night out, it was a spiritual mystical journey. I'll never forget it... i was just enchanted!

I met him when he had his shop at the Marc West in New Cross, he encouraged me to drink nerve tonic, when I was going through depression. A man of great humanity & true worth.
Maybe it wasnt a japanese audience, but by speaking slowly he just made himself clear to the whole world that will watch this lecture and get to understand the history and teachings of this man, his ideals and people.
Foundation dread at the control, pioneer in the U.K. Soundsystem movement, died of a heart attack this morning. Legacy lives on Mighty Shaka ✊🏾🔴⚫️🟢🇯🇲🇪🇹
First listened to Shaka around 1983, would listen to him on Saturday night and my ears would still be ringing lunchtime on Sunday. One man operation with the turntable on a big thick piece of sponge above his head with 4 x 18" speakers in each box.Those were the days :)
16 MINS in that's some of the best advice I've ever heard, "If you set high standards, even if you miss you still get somewhere" I try and live by that but i've never heard anybody express it so clearly.
I’ve been a reggae anorak connoisseur enthusiast for over 40 years and all I can say in the UK no one did it like he did it beautiful so much love respect to the mighty Freddie cloudburst a.k.a.jah Shaka ❤
Jah Shaka was a massive inspiration to my life growing up in Southall which use to be heart of sound systems in the 90’s. Shaka took me to a place of mediation so deep which use to let me connect to the vocal and dub. So thank you Jah Shaka for the musical inspiration that you had to my life l. Good times and bad but you still the man and No:1 sound-system in the world! The true Dread at the controls!! What I love is we sometimes come to a Shaka dance after years but we still feel the love. Bless 🙏🏽👌👊🏽
Used to go to Jah Shaka Sound in Acton Town Hall in the late 70's. Shaka, Coxsone and also they used to do Lovers Rock nights in Acton Town Hall. Had some excellent nights with Shaka. RIP
deep meditation and wisdom Jah Rastafari... Jah Shaka the great teacher of Jah rest in eternal peace in Zion garden. Shaka system vibrate my soul in London and in Stoke and was a spiritual awakening. live on in spirit and DUB BASS SOUND SYSTEM.
@1hr 30mins, I'll never forget that session with Messenger at the Bongo Club in Edinburgh! Nor so many other mystical journeys with the mighty Jah Shaka Sound which never failed to punch through to that higher level. Giving thanks and blessings 🙏🏼 1Love
Only 6 minutes or so into the program when Shaka tells about what was written on some doors and gates, I dont mind admitting that as a grown man I started to well up. Powerful stuff. Jah bless you Shaka. Love conquerors everything ❤.
I first herd JAH SHAKA in the 70’s at PHEBEES a night club in Stoke Newington north London . He was the entertaining sound system.The resident sound. Fatman followed and took over as resident sound.Both of them were great. Will always be in my heart.
For me it was settlement Peckham. Remember getting your Giro! Going daddy kools, Dean street ,anything shaka played you would buy.when daddy kool new you,he would play for you,you put your hand up and it's added to your pile.
This interview shows that jah shaka is a very intelligent sound system sound man because to be a good sound man you got to invent your own music and shaka was a man that made his own music and it is my view that is why he stood out more than all the other sound systems a great man long live jah shaka
The great Jah Shaka, it's a joyous thing to see him sharing his wisdom with so many people in this way. Great stories that explain so clearly what his message is about. The question from the audience at 1.40.56 was a wonderful question and so beautifully answered by Jah Shaka, a truly inspirational person for all ages and all people. Give thanks.
Rest in power, Shaka. Respect to him also at 1hr30 for going out his way to mention Messenger Soundsystem outta Edinburgh. Really solid and under-rated sound system from 88'. I highly recommend going to their monthly dance in Edinburgh or booking them for your city. You won't regret it.
@@the_funkykingston I’m not too sure. It could be. I know he played there again on Messenger in 2019. Wicked session. Every Messenger session at the Bongo is fire.
Know him when I was in my teens. He used to play at shubeen on my road 5 doors away. We didn't have to go coz we cld hear it in our house! He used to play at Mile End every Sunday, it was a must every Sunday to get there. Loved it. Bwoi
One of best moments of my musical journey was a Jah Shaka tent! Just this guy with his massive sound system, a turntable and a mic. He played the record - one after the other (gaps of silence in-between tunes). It was around the time DMC scratch DJ'ing and House / DnB blending was so political, this man just chilled, played the best Dub records and danced! It simply blew my mind! as a White English person growing up in the frantic Rave era, this was so amazing to me! It's mad cuz I was really in tune to Jah Shaka's music a week or so ago with no knowledge of him passing (literally just found out) Rest in Peace Mr Shaka ♥✌✊🏾
I remember at club Rocket trying to roll a spliff, but the bass was so heavy, I lost all my weed cause it kept bouncing to the bee-line.. and then my mate collapsed because the lightweight couldn't handle it ...( but I kept my sacred spot next to the speaker throughout the night )
With playing reggae riddim is a way to reflect their own loyal followers Rastafarian, Jamaican music sound system Jah love to spread worldwide, Jah bless, One love.
'No Black, No Irish, No Dogs' - a sign I remember well, from 1995/6 when living near the West Ham football club in the East of London. Pubs used to have that sign...me and my mates were not welcome in those joints, avoided them like the plague. Bad voodoo back then.
JAH Shaka you mentioned a very important point. We need back the house parties back in the centres. Truth we don't even know each other no more.. Now pandemic keep us in hiding and women can't be seen. We need to bring some vibes back.
I love that the whole Dread Dub Rasta they had going on in Brixton has not melted away but gotten more organised into An Underground System to preserve the sound. Ha those Corporate Media Music Monkeys have taken over Jamaica,and The West You are as better off Preserving It From Them in UK must be plenty of places here and there and remember France and Germany love this music exclusively too.
You can't run away You can't hide No, no, no, no Don't run to the rock Don't run to the sea No escape You cannot run Down inna Babylon Yeah, you gotta be strong You got to know yourself Before it gets to late
Jah Shaka the Sound System Messenger of Jah Irie Vibes to the entire world .. he's got just the perfect clear voice for people to understand it ... Bless 🙏🏾💚💛❤️
