I was born in 1990..but i enjoy listening to old school reggae like this. this is real reggae...CLASSIC!! I'm so proud of being Jamaican. Big up from New York!!
this actually makes me feel flattered to be a little bit bigger because I know they mean it as a good thing and voluptuous. Very interesting cuz when I first heard this I giggled a little cuz I wasn't used to this social perception but this is a unique band, oldies feel! it is such a sweet song and I love the emotion in their voices
One of the differences between today's and yesterday's music: Note that "Fattie Fattie" does not contain the "F" or "P" word. All nice and reggae jam with a hint of rudeness, true finesse. Immortal lyrics from a great song.
RIP Brother Barry you gave us your all in them time condolosence to your family sleep my brother and take your rest, Jah bless always Peace. One love. 42Empress
It was the first song that ever was censored in Jamaica. The youth is not entirely free text about chubby women took the Heptones not only success in their homeland, he was also a chart success in Britain. love this song thx 4 upload one love
I remember when my aunt played it when I was young. And up 2 this day I styll remember it. I'm so proud and happy 2 be a big beautiful full-figured woman
Can I come to the party I am the little white kid who lived across the road watching huge speakers going into the house across at the weekend wondering what was going on inside while the only exposure we got to reggae was Jimmy Saville introducing UB40 on Top of the Pops. I woz robbed!
Bloody hell Donner........:).............You sound like a guy who used to frequent our estate in W12 back in the early 80's and my Mum invited to Sunday 'Jamaican' full dinner. Happy memories dude ......hang on to them!
It doesn't matter what color you are I'm a white guy too! My old group was all white but we toured with and opened for Jamaican legends like the Skatalites, Toots, Lord Tanamo and Laurel Aitken!
I love this song and 70s songs. I remember what l use to Jamaica when we played them. Memories is good. I would like to returned when Mama was alive. Cannot forget.it was love and more love.
Just read in the Jamaica Gleaner 11/26/2011 that a member of TheHeptones, Barry Llewellyn has passed on. Condolence to his Family/fans. Rest in peace,brother,Rest.
This is a slightly different ver. of the Original, recorded and produced by Coxsone Dodd in 1966, musical arrangement by Jackie Mittoo and the backing band were The Soul Brothers. Fantastic sound of the Rude Boy era and by the way, I like fat girls, too!
most of the girls in jamaica are not fat ,that's why they are singing I need a fat girl cuz they were hard to find at least back in the 60s when this song first came out.
Actually, it was banned in Jamaica. It was banned from air play. However, it was being played everywhere else. That's what turned it into a classic. The ban actually helped it.
Yes, afterwards, it started playing on the airwaves. All you have to do is look it up on the web. You can even check out the band's interview with The Gleaner, in which they confirmed the same.
Im 23 years old, good looking, attractive so i should not really be into songs like these! However thats not the case, i LOVE THEM! they just reach deep in my soul and mellow me down, calm me and just al;low me to build a vybe. No other music can do this!
two that really stick out in my mind would be The Ethiopians, led by leonard dillon, and Slim Smith, who was frontman for the uniques and techniques. esp with the ethiopians. if u listen to 'Do it Sweet" or "Free Man" and then "Conquering Lion of Judah" or "Hail Rasta Brother Hail" you can literally hear how the music shifts. be theme, tempo, shift of walking bass style to the more syncopated reggae style, etc... love your interest in this lil niche of pop music. jah love.

When this song came out I was so slim. I was very jealous of the girls who had meat on their bodies. Now in 2020 I am fat and people want you to get slim because fat not healthy.
This is a song that has been sung too many times by your hero here during those pub hopping nights while the mates were getting theirs... It's almost as if I could play this song on my ipod, put the headphones on a random fatty, not say anything... It should be understood! (Thanks for sharing!)
I remember this song from when I was a very small but fat child. they used to call me "Fatty Boom Boom" & "fatty fatty" also "suck finga Jack/Jackie" & that's not even my name.

Beautiful, Precious memories of my youth in Jamaica.
There will NEVER EVER be times and singers like these AGAIN!!! NEVER EVER!!!!
this actually makes me feel flattered to be a little bit bigger because I know they mean it as a good thing and voluptuous. Very interesting cuz when I first heard this I giggled a little cuz I wasn't used to this social perception but this is a unique band, oldies feel! it is such a sweet song and I love the emotion in their voices

This is one of the many reasons I love Caribbean culture, a full figured woman is to be celebrated! Here's to you queen!! 🍹
Fuck them if a man does not see your Inner self! 🛎

Everlasting Jamaican classic

This comment pre MeToo, youtube didn't delete it! 🤣🎶🎶🎶🎶
if this song was released for the first time tomorrow , it would be a hit ,
im not sure reggae normally does well nowadays
+Donovan Littler always remember , a great song , is a great song , is a great song , bob marley had over a hundred million in sales last year (2014)
Daniel Forte i wish we could recapture the form of rocksteady from the late 60's, ill agree that if we did it would top the charts
+Donovan Littler i perfectly agree! If a large part of the population would know rocksteady, nowadays it will become the mainstream genre!
I haven't heard this song in ages...I am going to show my mum as soon as I can. She will love it.
Sounds like a mix of 50's olddies and Reggae by the way i like PHAT GIRLS TOO!!
I'm pretty sure it is. My grandpa liked this song.
RIP to my great grand uncle Barry Llewellyn in my heart you'll always be

Jackie Mittoo's "Ram Jam". Rocksteady classic
Classic tune!!!!!
This is a slightly different ver. of the Original, recorded and produced by Coxsone Dodd in 1966, musical arrangement by Jackie Mittoo and the backing band were The Soul Brothers. Fantastic sound of the Rude Boy era and by the way, I like fat girls, too!

most of the girls in jamaica are not fat ,that's why they are singing I need a fat girl cuz they were hard to find at least back in the 60s when this song first came out.
Good point. Given what's allowed to play on our airwaves today, it's almost laughable that this song was banned from airplay.
sherwood991. but it wasn't ban in jamaica, maybe the u.s. and the u.k.
Actually, it was banned in Jamaica. It was banned from air play. However, it was being played everywhere else. That's what turned it into a classic. The ban actually helped it.
sherwood991 but I use to hear it a lot on the radio in Jamaica.
Yes, afterwards, it started playing on the airwaves. All you have to do is look it up on the web. You can even check out the band's interview with The Gleaner, in which they confirmed the same.

When you Feel it it feel nice 3rd leg💪🛎
two that really stick out in my mind would be The Ethiopians, led by leonard dillon, and Slim Smith, who was frontman for the uniques and techniques. esp with the ethiopians. if u listen to 'Do it Sweet" or "Free Man" and then "Conquering Lion of Judah" or "Hail Rasta Brother Hail" you can literally hear how the music shifts. be theme, tempo, shift of walking bass style to the more syncopated reggae style, etc... love your interest in this lil niche of pop music. jah love.

this makes a change from the shit we got today songs about skinny tings 😂
Hahahhaha!!! They need me :P
Come to think of it, neither have I.
When this song came out I was so slim. I was very jealous of the girls who had meat on their bodies. Now in 2020 I am fat and people want you to get slim because fat not healthy.
🆙 same way any time party ah kip 💃🏾🕺🏽2019
This is a song that has been sung too many times by your hero here during those pub hopping nights while the mates were getting theirs...
It's almost as if I could play this song on my ipod, put the headphones on a random fatty, not say anything... It should be understood! (Thanks for sharing!)
I remember this song from when I was a very small but fat child. they used to call me "Fatty Boom Boom" & "fatty fatty" also "suck finga Jack/Jackie" & that's not even my name.
