Toots and The Maytals

Reggae, soul legend
Category: Barnstaple Fringe

Starts: Tuesday, June 24, 2008

 

Toots is the true architect of reggae. His 1968 single 'Do the Reggay' gave a name to the Jamaican music phenomenon, that we now consider reggae music. His band, Toots and The Maytals, formed in 1962, helped to chart the course of Jamaican music with unrivaled delivery and dynamism. The all-star guests on 'True Love' his 2004 Grammy award winning album, range from legends like Keith Richards and Eric Clapton to No Doubt and The Roots. The calibre of these collaborators is testimony to the impact that Toots has made on several generations of rockers and rappers and the respect they hold for him.
