Dont quite no what you mean by "i was once like you, wondering why all my brother listened to was roots" though mate.
Kinda thought the idea of this thread was everyone collectivley saying there reggae heads.
But heck, im probably just high :o
aren't we all...on the topic of kool keith(a true hero, and wordsmith), i just saw a brand new car commercial with an ORIGINAL(for the comm.)song by kool keith, ha i was like...it doesn't matter what he does, it's always gonna be good. it makes me want to finally get a drivers liscence and buy whatever kind of car that was.

I knew I had this around somewhere... dunno what the original (vocal) track is, but this dub version is "The Death of Mr. Spock" by the Roots Radics.

For real Gregory Issacs plays RIDDIM!
Big fan of Prince Far I as well, he toasts on some pure vibe tunes. Who is that bedward the flying preacher tune by? As in; whos the backing band AND the producer.
I agree that On-u sounds output is pretty hit and miss in terms of quality tunes, but Adrian sherwoods production is on alot of it (well it is his label) and that cant be faulted, even when the song aint all that great.

Bedward The Flying Preacher was reissued by Sound Boy (the reissue subsidiary of On U Sound). It is produced by Adrian Sherwood. Sound Boy seems to have gone quiet, but they also released an excellent comp of Junior Delgado which is well worth checking out..

re Scratch, pretty much everything he released prior to the early 80's is essential..the sound of the Black Ark particularly the years prior to him burning it down is amazing..the Congos - The Heart of The Congos, Junior Murvin - Police & Theives, Scratch - Roast Fish & Cornbread etc..all essential..there's a lot of great comps of this time that are worth checking, and amazed noone mentioned Blackboard Jungle Dub yet!

another few recommendations:

African Brothers - Want Some Freedom

This is a comp of the early Sugar Minott material, heavy roots vocal trio with Tony Tuff as well..the track Righteous Kingdom is worth the purchase on its own, but there is other rare gold on this.

Light of Saba (Honest Jons Comp)

Collection of tracks from rare allbums of a band led by Cedric Im Brooks that spawned from Count Ossie's Mystic Revelationjs of Rastafari. The album covers jazz, afrobeat, reggae, calypso/mento.

King Tubby - Freedom Sounds in Dub

Essential Blood and Fire dub album..tuff roots rhythms of vocals by Prince Alla, Philip Frazer, Earl Zero etc..

Glen Brown - Termination Dub

Another great Tubby mixed Blood & Fire reissue..Brown's rhythms were tough.

Burning Spear - Burning Spear/Rocking Time

The birth of roots..the first releases by the Spear on Studio One..quite different to the Island material, which is more chanting style with strong horn arrangements..

Half Moon Productions (PK records release) http://www.smokecds.com/cd/34122

"An astounding set drawing from the seventies and early-eighties heyday of this Toronto-based reggae label, when it played host to stars like Augustus Pablo, Stranger Cole, Johnny Osbourne and Leroy Sibbles. Their Half Moon singles are included, with backing by the in-house Super 8 Corporation band, alongside one-away classics by locals like Pluggy Satchmo and Dill Smith. These productions by Oswald Creary -- most of them will be new even to die-hard reggae fans -- are in the tradition of Lee Perry, Keith Hudson and childhood-friend Bullwackies, though at the same time they are utterly unlike anything else. Raw, twisted and compelling, at times staggering music."

Various Artists - Black Slavery Days http://www.smokecds.com/cd/33855

Compilation of pretty much unknown artists produced by Jack Ruby (also check the Black Foundation comp on Heartbeat - he produced the classic Burning Spear Island albums), deep roots reggae from the mid 70's..

The Uniques - Watch This Sound http://www.pressure.co.uk/pressuresound ... oduct=PS21

Essential rocksteady..Slim Smith had the most amazing soulful voice..also a tragic death..

Kool Keith had very little to do with early hip hop or bringing the idea of sound system culture over from Jamaica. You must be thinking of Kool Dj Herc.

I love Kool Keith but he was not an active promoter of the early sound system culture in the US.

don't know the original name of it but Visionary did a track called tempest that features that vocal.
