The independence of Jamaica in 1962 brought a musical creativity of which not only the island still profits today. The Steadytones, from southern Germany, recreate that golden age, making it tangible, audible and perceptible. A perfect band for backing the ‘First Lady of Ska’.
Great interpreters of the variety of styles that emerged in the 1960s, especially in Jamaica, but also in other corners of the world, The Steadytones take their “explosive reggay” sound far beyond the borders of their native Germany. Their work with renowned and influential artists as Stranger Cole, Keith & Tex or Doreen Shaffer, endorse them as one of the most appreciated bands nowadays.
The chemistry produced when Doreen met The Steadytones was registered in the studio and pressed in this single of exquisite production in which you can find two standards from the last century, taking them to their field and giving them a complete new dimension for our enjoyment, an indispensable release In the discography of any good music lover.
