For a number of years I’ve listened to a small Internet radio station put out by a guy up in Canada. It’s one of the best reggae “shows” you’ll ever find. Tracing the roots of Jamaican music 24 hours a day. I figured that to help start the week off right I’d pass the link on to anyone interested in some seriously positive sounds.

Scratch Radio has been broadcasting since March, 2000.

The format ranges from late-1950s mento & Jamaican-boogie into 1960s ska, through the rocksteady years and on to reggae and dub. There is no rap or hip-hop in the playlist – just some fine toasting from the likes of Prince Jazzbo, U-Roy and Big Youth (to name a few).

Due to limited bandwidth, this station can only support a limited number of simultaneous listeners (currently 62).
