[quote user="kompressorkev"]fuuma, i'd be glad to post a pic when it comes in - it's ordered it from yoox and it's shipping to me.[/quote]Did you get the grey or the brown? I've been considering getting the buffalo leather version (not from YOOX)...
you would have to tell me what kind of reggae you like as the scope of the music is very broad,
there are the inspirational Culturalists like Bob Marley, Luciano , Buju Banton (my Favorite) Garnet Silk, Jah Cure etc.
then there are the Firebrand Rastas........ Capleton, Sizzla , Anthony B, Determine etc.
then you have the Lovers Rock (like R&B) Category of Beres Hammond, George Nooks, Dennis Brown, Sanchez, among others
there is also the Dance Hall which encompasses the music of Beenie Man, Shaggy, Sean Paul, Elephant man, Lady Saw and a ton of others,
there is also the Gangster DJ's (these i disdain) like Bounty Killer (featured on Gwen Stephani's No Doubt Album). Movado, BabyCham, Vibez Cartel and many more.
there is also Ska (pre-reggae Jamaican Music) by singers like Ken Boothe, Derrick Harriot, Boris Gardener, Leroy Sibbles, Toots and the Maytals and many more, If you are into older music (i find the quality better) you would like these,
Let me know what you like and i can proceed from there................
For my own music i do a lot of filtering,
anything that is Violent, Immoral, or Derogatory just for the sake of so being, I don't listen to.............. i just has a very good friend (Craig Dennis) who was on his way to super stardom, who was killed after a performance at a nightclub, rumor has it that it was because of his association with one of the Gangster DJ's........................... One more reason to dislike them

I can't listen to Bob Marley anymore - he's been co-opted by white people in Abercrombie gear.
I have not listened to Reggae in a very long time, in about 10 years probably. "If I was a rich girl, ta-na-na-na-na-na-na... " :-)

you should also try to get your hands on some Peter Tosh , an exeedingly talented artiste, who was a member (guitarist and sometimes lead vocals) of Bob Marley's band.........the Wailers
He was (IMO) a better talent than Bob Marley, but he was very Mercurial and Unruly, (His Guitar was custom built like an AK-47 rifle and he once smoked weed in Buckingham palace in protest for its legalization)........and thus did not have the same kind of success, He was ultimately killed in a massacre carried out by a man who used to live on he same street i grew up on.................
here he is with his guitar..........

Ok, this is an un-purchase post. After a careful examination utilizing a full-length mirror I decided that my RO shearling adventures are ending in failure. It's partial failure of course, since I am getting out of it with a lot of money in my pocket [<:o)]. IF basement sale?
BTW, let me know if anyone wants it, before I ship it back to YOOX. It's just ill cut in my opinion (or for my body type) - the shoulders and armholes are tight, while the bottom part is fairly loose. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

faust sorry to hear that you have to let it go.. Btw i have two bombers from RO which both have this somwhat weird cut. The shoulder part fits like M but thebottom part istoo loose. But since they are very soft, imfine.they dont look so weird asit sounds.
I decided to move this weekend because I heard Max Romeo in a cafe in the neighborhood we were checking out. One of my recent purchases was a Trojan box set (Rude Boys maybe - it has "Guns Fever" on it) and the Specials album for my dad. Desmond Dekker, The Viceroys, and Prince Buster are next. He had some sort of ska revelation recently.
