- This Mini-Doc project explores the unknown story of Reggae in Iowa.
My parents, Greg and Susan started Jah Reggae Music promotions in
the mid-90s. Bringing numerous legends to the state of Iowa for 12 years.
LET'S GOOOO!!!
Wonderful!
Amazing documentary! What an amazing couple! Reggae is so independent and it takes a love and because of people like Greg and Susan this great music was able to be nurtured and grow. Here is Colorado we have a similar man who is always in the background and the shows and come to find out he is the one bringing all these amazing artist to our town. Many blessings and gratitude to Greg and Susan, you for making this amazing documentary and all the people who do it just for the love and to share it with there neighbors.
Oh man this was wonderful bro...don't know if you have more footage but it could have been longer, would love to know more about your folks and their story. This takes me back to my early years in the music, seeing Spear and Culture right around that same time...how much of the story of reggae outside of Jamaica is just this, everyday people with a passion for and belief in the music spreading it into new and unfamiliar areas and encountering pitfalls, pushbacks and resistance along the way...and what a perfect song by the Meditations "it's gonna take a lot of energy/it's gonna take a lot of sweat". Cool to hear so many of those legends were real class acts offstage. Well done ❤💛💚
Glad you enjoyed it! It would be longer but unfortunately this was all of the footage i could find. there are tapes that have gone missing, My dad wasn't the best at archiving things. A friend of the family shot the video of the Meditations, He has the master tapes of the full 2hr show but i only have the first half of it right now.
