Inna Studio One Old Skool Roots Reggae Mix

This is dedicated to my love of 70s old skool roots reggae as championed by Sir Coxsone Dodd, founder of the Motown of Jamaica, Studio One who had literally every great artist pass through from Bob Marley to John Holt, Horace Andy to Lee Scratch Perry. Their artists in turn went on to inspire the next generation so if it wasn't for this label perhaps hip hop, soul, jungle, electronic music, trip hop, dubstep, etc wouldn't even exist or at least wouldn't be anywhere near as good. All hail King Dodd! Now this is not a definitive mix, there are literally hundreds of songs I could have used. This is just me dipping my toes in their water and tipping my hat to legends.
