Since Day 1, amonst the various music types covered Starship Overflow has always been a great supporter of Roots reggae & Dub. Within a few months of being on air, we started a Reggae show in 1987 called The Black Sounds Of Freedom. The show got it's title from the classic Black Uhuru album released in 1977.
The whole caboodle lock, stock & barrel was put together by an old Overflow presenter called Reggae Ray. Ray was part of the crew for the first 10 years. Other presenters included the brilliant Gordon Ganja, who took over at the helm for a while... (See article below).
So, I've decided I'd lke to revive The Black Sounds Of Freedom once more, to complete our line-up & schedule. I've started putting feelers out in Reggae world, but early days yet.
Perhaps you yourself may be interested in a regular slot, or know someone else who may be? If so, just make contact with us via the e-mail address, or on Starship Overflow messenger.
Shows can be 1 or 2hrs long and will be aired late evenings. They can be weekly, monthly or whatever you wish them to be.
We have two new presenters starting this coming weekend, so someone who knows their Dub/Roots Reggae etc, would complete our regular line-up a treat.
