Bunny “Striker” Lee interview - Part 2 [UNCUT]

Following the wonderfully named 2103 documentary “I Am the Gorgon”, Bunny “Striker” Lee is becoming more widely recognized as one of the crucial figures in the development of Jamaican music. His encyclopaedic knowledge and forthright nature make for a fascinating interview, with frequent digressions and anecdotes only adding flavour to the mix. In part two of a wide-ranging conversation, he holds forth on, among many others: the “revolutionary” Mrs. Pottinger, Coxsone Dodd, Chris Blackwell, Black Uhuru, Sly & Robbie, Lee Perry, Count Shelly, interviewer Steve Barrow, Inner Circle, , Joe Gibbs, Edward Seaga, Irie FM, Rodigan, Roland Alphonso, Tommy McCook, and Lester Sterling. And there’s more: Harry J’s “midas touch”, England “the headquarters” of Jamaican music, King Tubby’s 4-track dub, when Niney “ruled the roost”, Duke Reid’s guns, and the importance of Baba Brooks.

Bunny Lee a scholar & a Gentleman. Deh' de' from the jump and willing to leave his knowledge & experience for the generation to come , obviously. Wish the interview was outdoors for some reason.

The Man Striker Lee is a "Walking Google" when it comes to the Sound Business!

[@JamrockVybzTV]

Wonderful interview... Bunny is one of the greatest!

[@Higher_Sun_Highzak]

No doubt... I cannot imagine which way reggae would have progressed without Bunny Lee, but the man wants Jamaica music to be pure and true according to his works and words

Can anyone speak to the role of Nearlin Taitt in the role of the creation (if any) of reggae music. I hear Bunny mention him in the first few minutes here, saying he was playing on one of the first tunes for Ms. Pottinger. Trinis are always saying that Taitt (who is from Trinidad & Tobago) is the creator of reggae. How true is this?

[@hungchung2726]

These Interviews highlight alot of Politics and Curruption Hidden within the Music.💯

Jah blessings allujah and protection on you peace in Jesus holy you keep the music going, Rebecca Pretty Eyes

Rest well striker lee 🙏🙏❤❤✨✨

[@regthebackyardjackofalltrades]

Bunny Lee is speaking “Micro and Macro Economics 101...” This interview can be used in any facet of business or life lessons on how people react with each other. Palm does it well again. Only the commercials are disheartening. I understand that Palm has nothing to do with this.

[@rosemarielee4216]

Big up my Cousin Bunny Striker Lee miss you Cuz. Rosemarie Lee and the Lee's families in Canada.
