JAH SHAKA, the originator and the inspiration for the all the other UK sound systems. Jah Shaka has been operating a London-based, roots reggae Jamaican sound system since the early 1970s. His name is an amalgamation of the Rasta term for God and that of a Zulu warrior, Shaka Zulu. Jah Shaka events are renowned for attracting a wide audience from all backgrounds and races. Shaka believes it to be a testament to the quality of the message that he expounds in his choice of music and his Rastafarian beliefs. Shaka stayed true to his Rastafarian beliefs during the 1980s when many other Sound Systems had started to follow the Jamaican trend towards playing dancehall music. His refusal to compromise inspired a host of new UK reggae artists and Sound Systems such as Eastern Sher, The Disciples, Iration Steppas, Jah Warrior, Channel One Sound System, Conscious Sounds, The Rootsman and Abashanti-I. Non-reggae artists such as Basement Jaxx have also cited Jah Shaka as an influence during interviews. On his own record label he has released music from Jamaican artists such as Max Romeo, Johnny Clarke, Bim Sherman and Prince Alla as well as UK groups such as Aswad and Dread & Fred. He has released a number of dub albums, often under the Commandments of Dub banner. In 1980 Shaka played himself in the film Babylon (directed by Franco Rosso), operating his Sound System in a soundclash at the climax of the story. In 1989 Shaka visited Jamaica and worked with many musicians there, including King Tubby. The Jah Shaka Sound System continues to appear regularly in London, with occasional tours of the United States, Europe and Japan. Live footage of Shaka featured in the documentary All Tomorrow's Parties based on the musical festival, which was released in 2009 -- MAIN ARENA -- - THE MIGHTY ZULU WARRIOR : JAH SHAKA (London) + FULL SOUND SYSTEM !!! - Caribbean Food & Merchandise Stalls - TICKETS ONLINE @ I-WANT-TICKETS: http://www.i-want-tickets.com/site/events_database_2.asp?catID=162 FATSOMA : www.fatsoma.com/c2771 TICKETS IN STORE @ Rockaboom - 4 St Martins Square, Leicester, LE1 5DF Hub Bar - 49 Braunstone Gate Leicester LE3 5LH Wellgosh -34 High St, Leicester, LE1 5YN The Font - 52 Gateway St, Leicester, LE2 7DP Hatman - 102 Corporation Street, BIRMINGHAM Ultimate Barbers - 131 Radford Rd, NOTTINGHAM, NG7 5DU Advance Tickets : £13.50 +BF More On The Door FACEBOOK EVENT: https://www.facebook.com/events/348044705205799/ ACCOMODATION : - http://www.goleicestershire.com/accommodation/ TAXI - 01162 2625262.
