05.01.14 - Techniques Tribute

LISTEN TO THE ARCHIVE AT JAMAICAROCK.COM


Winston Riley


























Not my first Techniques tribute and certainly not my last. The Techniques gave me my DJ moniker (via Curtis Mayfield) and Winston Riley's Techniques label have given us all such killer reggae classics that they deserve to be lauded at every opportunity. Rest in power to the great Winston Riley, I had the honor of meeting him at his shop in Jamaica and he was so gentle and gracious. He even let me go through some 45 archives in the back of the store, and I will never forget that.
