This week we pay tribute to Sly Dunbar. Sly is one of the most prolific musicians of all time, having played on over 200,000 recording. He was part of many backing bands like The Revolutionaries, Word Sound & Power, The Aggrovators, Sly & Robbie. And as part of those bands, he backed legends like Black Uhuru, Peter Tosh, Gregory Isaacs, Dennis Brown and so many others. We listen to a few tracks that Sly played on, and tha playlist is available below. We talk about his drumming style, the career he had and the immense legacy he left behind.

This week we pay homage to legendary guitarist Stephen “Cat” Coore of Third World (). He passed away on January 18, 2026 at 69 years old, leaving behind an enormous legacy. He founded Third World at just 17 years old and played with them consistently for 50+ years. During that time he created countless hit songs, earned 9 grammy nominations and many other global accolades including The Order of distinction of Jamaica. We listen to the opening track from the album 96 Degrees in the Shade called “Jah Glory”. We talk about the epic intro, the unique orchestration and the unique feeling that each instrument gives you throughout the song.

Rest in Power, Stephen “Cat” Coore, and thank you for the amazing music.

We kick off our first episode of 2026 with one of our favorite artists, Hollie Cook (). We listen to the song “Frontline” from her latest album, Shy Girl. Topics include the song’s unique phrasing, its flawless harmonies, and so much more. We also get into some other songs on the album and discuss how the overall vibe of this album varies from her previous ones, but still remains true to Hollie Cook’s sound.

This week James is joined by Dave Shiffman (), filling in for Mark. For our last episode of 2025, we pay tribute to a reggae legend who passed recently, Jimmy Cliff. We listen to the song “Wonderful World, Beautiful People” from the 1969 album of the same name. We talk about how we found Jimmy Cliff’s music, his unique orchestrations, and the legacy that he left to the world. Jimmy Cliff helped open doors for reggae music, spreading it across the globe, and he will be missed. Rest in Power Jimmy Cliff!
