    Hi,

    On the way back from a bake off, I listened to Radio two which had a programme about the rise of roots reggae. It was presented by Don Letts and features a potted history of the development of roots reggae and the rise of rastafarism in reggae music.

    Features some great music.

    The link has details and you can hear the programme again.

    Think he might have done the same programe for 6 music too. He stands in as DJ on 6 music sometimes and did a great series on 'punk and reggae' too.
