Official Reggae Sound Clash: Saxon Studio vs Sir Coxsone @ Peoples Club 1985 [Both Sounds] 🔥🎼

Saxon Studio Sound System vs Sir Coxsone Sound System @ Peoples Club 1985 [Both Sounds] 🔥🎼 Saxon Studio International is a reggae sound system from London, the first UK Soundsystem to win an international competition. Saxon Studio International began operating in Lewisham, South London in 1976. The sound came to prominence in the early 80s because of the "fast chat" style which was pioneered by its deejay Peter King. Other Saxon MCs included Tippa Irie, Smiley Culture, Asher Senator, Papa Levi, Daddy Colonel, Daddy Rusty and Daddy Sandy, each of whom developed this style and went on to release records, some (such as Smiley and Tippa) achieving Top 40 hits in the UK national chart. Sir Coxsone (AKA Lloyd Coxsone, real name Lloyd Blackford(1)) came to the UK in 1961(2) from Morant Bay, St Thomas, Jamaica, had started out with his own Lloyd The Matador this folded because of lack of funds and he went on to work with the Duke Reid Sound. Upon splitting from Duke Reid in 1969 it was a natural choice to name his sound Sir Coxsone, in recognition of the Jamaican rivalry between Studio One and Treasure Isle. Initially, Sir Coxsone had a residency at the Roaring Twenties Club in London's West End - having I Roy as a resident deejay in the club 1973. He later moved to the Four Aces in Dalston, East London circa 1974. He was back at the Four Aces doing regular Sunday night sessions in 1979. In late 1974 he set up his own record shop at Peckham Rye. He also launched the label Ital Coxone together with Leonard »Santic« Chin - the first release being »Only For A Time« by the Royals in November 1974. In February 1975 he produced the song »Caught You In A Lie« with the 15-year-old Louisa Marks - it was released on Safari Records and was a best seller. He would also release acclaimed albums such as the King Of The Dub Rock and the sequel titled simply King Of The Dub Rock Part 2. The former was awarded fifth place in the Black Echoes list of the best dub albums ever to be released up to 1977(3). In 1977 Coxson started his own Tribesman label. Coxsone was featured in the 70's BBC documentary Aquarius focusing on reggae where he spoke about the scene. In 1980 the sound travelled to Amsterdam, Holland and played two sessions. By this time the Sound featured Blackadread alongside Festus and Lloydie at the controls and MC's Levi Roots, Skeeroy and Bikey Dread. ❤️💛💚 Uk's Leading Broadcast Station For #ReggaeMusic & #SoundSystem #Culture For more Quality Vibes Subscribe to our YouTube Channel.
