    • World Exclusive. Jah S...
    Out of the depths of the Archives Tape Section I came across this 'Classic' Jah Shaka session in Phebes of all places. I was sixteen years of age them times. 'Hardtimes' an understatement in terms of reality and life. Memory lane to all who attended Phebes back in the day's.

    Yes Sir I was there in the late 1977-85 The Phebes Night Club 240a Amhurst Rd Stoke Newington / Club Noreik Tottenham
    / Acton Town hall / And many other clubs in The Ladbroke grove Area ( Aklam Hall ) And I clearly remember
    The Historic DUBPLATE Battles JAH SHAKA had with Fatman hifi & SIR COXONE When he still had Festus & Blacka Dread at the controls
    That was the greatest Sound system era ever !!!! p.s. how come David Rodigan can gets an MBE Award for Contributions to the
    Music industry and JAH SHAKA & COXONE get nothing ??? ( BBC FIX )

    Jah Rastafari to each and everyone in Psalms 1. This Particular Jah Shaka Session is very Nostalgic and Reminiscent for me and all Jah Shaka Sound System in Hackney during the Late Seventies, who would listen to Jah Shaka and Roxy on a Friday Night till dawn Hallelujah Amen. My Jah Shaka days Started at Phebes and I and I 11 and Brethren within the Hackney Borough Community are still Supporters today and may Jah Shaka Sound System and all True Supporters Continue Eternally in Jah we give the Praise for ever and ever. Amen.

    Does anyone have a recording of the 'crusty' session in Mandela Hall at Sussex university, probably around 1989? Student union were on strike, I think Shaka was running his set from a generator. No lights in the dance except the one bulb above his turntable. Shaka was on form that night. The reason it was called the crusty dance was because there was a new age travellers site on the campus, and loads of them turned up. What a vibe!!!
