Musical Background / History

I am an avid fan of all black music and I have been since the age of about 10 when I discovered Bob Marley and the Wailers’ Exodus album. Since then I have been in love with reggae and British lover’s rock. My musical taste has changed slightly as I grow older and I am now into rare groove and modern day neo soul and I absolutely love the soul of the 70s which is in my opinion the best era for soul music but I still get a buzz out of hearing a nice reggae tune.
