CHAT PON RIDDIM: Better Dub From Studio One 

Paying tribute to the great Clement "Sir Coxsone" Dodd, who died from a
heart attack in Kingston this week.  As the main man behind Jamaica's
most important recording studio, Coxsone helped make reggae music what it
is today.  Today's show took a look at his life and works, from the early ska 
days, through to more recent recordings.  Every tune is a classic, and
almost every riddim has been versioned countless times in reggae history,
highlighting the importance of this great studio.  Long live Sir Coxsone 
and the sound of Studio One!
