The beats go on: the rise of reggae's sinister side (The Independent)

Wed, 04 Jun 2008 23:00:01 GMT

The opening of The Harder They Come at the Playhouse Theatre returns us with a bang to the moment reggae entered the world. There had been one-off ska hits from Jamaica before. But the 1972 Perry Henzell film this musical is based on, and the soundtrack album, mostly by its star, Jimmy Cliff, showed outsiders the Kingston streets, simmering with heat and violence, where the music was...

The Harder They Come (Flaming Nora)

Thu, 29 May 2008 18:59:00 GMT

To the theatre this week to see the stage version of the cult reggae fillum The Harder They Come. Musical theatre doesn't come much better, it was tremendous. The audience were all up dancing by the end and I walked out when it'd finished, pretending to be Jimmy Cliff. If you're in London, or even if you're not, get yourself to the Playhouse Theatre now . I can't recommend this enough....

Springsteen: great site, until you try to buy (Webware.com)

Mon, 31 Mar 2008 16:36:00 GMT

I've always heard that Bruce Springsteen puts on a great show, and my wife's a huge fan, so on Saturday we went to see him with the fabled E Street Band.

Some background: back in 1984, when Born in the U.S.A. was huge, the local hard rock station in Seattle, KISW , got a sudden...
