A musical journey to Jamaica's Golden Age of music, Rocksteady. While everybody has heard the music of Bob Marley, few people know that it was Rocksteady that developed the buoyant rhythms, prominent bass pulse, soulful vocals and socially conscious lyrics that gave Reggae its power. Featuring a mix of studio recording sessions at Tuff Gong Studios, rarely seen archival footage and interviews with the performers at home or at places in Jamaica that had profound effects on their music and lives. Bonus features include an hour long concert of Rocksteady legends.
