Ep. 12: Roots Reggae Legends & Rastafari History - Harrison Stafford Talks Groundation
Maximum respect, Rebel Rockers massive—today’s session links arms with roots-reggae visionary Harrison Stafford of Groundation, tracing his analog-on-tape odyssey from the breakthrough 2002 “Hebron Gate” to 2022’s all-star LP “One Rock,” where Israel Vibration and The Abyssinians bless the grooves.
In a vibey, improvisation-rich lime, Harrison breaks down jazz-soaked seven-minute riddims, the DIY label hustle he launched in ’98, and his mission to spotlight reggae elders—from Don Carlos to the Congos—while championing Rastafari history through the film Holding On to Jah. We reason on recording live to two-inch tape in Brussels, juggling worldwide festivals from São Paulo to Paris, and chanting down Babylon for 30 000 in Morocco, proving real instruments and conscious lyrics still mash up the dance. Plug in, feel the one-drop pulse, and catch the full groundation of reggae’s past, present, and future on the Rebel Rockers Podcast.
