Lead Belly The Man Who Invented Rock And Roll 2021 mp4

 * Well here is another video/movie/documentary for ya all. Hope you will find it interesting. I am trying to post more movies and books here on vibes to expand the type of things we share. We already share a broad selection of musical genres.  I have found the trailer on you tube for this one.*




* Lead Belly: The Man Who Invented Rock & Roll offers a vibrant and uplifting journey through the life of a true musical pioneer. Directed by Curt Hahn, this compelling documentary celebrates Lead Belly's achievements, sheds light on his significant contribution to music history, and emphasizes the importance of his story in today's current affairs.


As we navigate complex social issues and seek inspiration, Lead Belly's unwavering spirit and enduring legacy remind us of the power of resilience, unity, and the ability of music to bring people together. This full-length feature film pays homage to the remarkable career, perseverance, and lasting impact of the musical genius.

Through intimate interviews with Lead Belly's niece, Tiny Robinson, and a star-studded lineup including Pete Seeger, Harry Belafonte, Oscar Brand, Odetta, Joan Baez, Tom Jones, Paul McCartney, and Alan Lomax, this masterful documentary provides a captivating glimpse into the life of an iconic artist.

Lead Belly: The Man Who Invented Rock & Roll, not only chronicles Lead Belly's journey from his humble beginnings to becoming a rock & roll pioneer but also showcases how his raw talent transformed the music landscape, serving as an inspiration to countless artists across generations. This film is a must-watch for music enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone who appreciates the transformative power of art. *

* American folk and blues singer, musician, and songwriter notable for his strong vocals, virtuosity on the twelve-string guitar, and the folk standards he introduced, including his renditions of "Goodnight, Irene", "Midnight Special", "Cotton Fields", and "Boll Weevil".
Born: January 23, 1888 in Mooringsport, Louisiana, USA
Died: December 6, 1949 in New York, NY, USA

Though many releases credit him as "Leadbelly", he himself wrote it as "Lead Belly", which is also the spelling on his tombstone. *

* I know many of you come to Vibes for the Reggae, Dub, Soul and Funk we share, but we share many more genres of music, with that in mind, I won't be sharing any Reggae, Dub, Soul or Funk, for the next few days. It will all be other genres that we share here, why not try something different!! You might like it and enjoy it, but if you don't try you won't know. I have always had an open mind with music, I have one simple rule, to take a listen and if I like it, and if I don't well it can always be deleted. I don't give a toss what others think and never have. I like what I like, we are different and have different tastes, but go on try something new *

1998 - Rhythm & Sound with Tikiman - Showcase



1998 - Rhythm & Sound with Tikiman - Showcase @320



The best of the best, 1998, compiling the first five, utterly foundational Burial Mix releases, 1996 - 1997, featuring Paul St. Hilaire fka Tikiman on vox plus all the versions, amounting to an hour of the most sub-heavy, softly contoured, emotionally and physically hard-hitting productions of the era.

A close travelling companion for so many of us since its 1998 release, ’Showcase’ rolls out in a classic dub reggae album style and pattern, vocal and version, plucking choicest numbers from the preceding Burial Mix 10” series. At the time the only way to hold them on digital format, the CD came to be understandably cherished as a night-ender, quite likely in sequence over the years with Rhythm & Sound’s eponymous CD session and ‘w/ The Artists’ / ‘The Versions’. Simply a go-to when little else will suffice.

In trio with St, Hilaire, Ernestus & Von Oswald would fully indulge their dub passions in an effectively groundbreaking form, distilling the OG Jamaican template according to minimal techno principles in ways never before heard to this extent. Our all-time percy ‘Ruff Way’ and its version are perhaps the strongest examples for their balance of driving 4/4 steppers pressure and mellifluous vox, punctuated by a St. Hilaire shriek that still send electric shivers down the spine, but in all fairness shake a stick and you’ll hit a gem anywhere you look across ‘Showcase’ - trust it’s 100% killer no filler!
