This remarkable top quality dvd and C.D. are not old stock, but brand new and wonderful..Rock Steady was the short lived music time in Jamaica between Ska and the world take over Reggae days..as the music developed into the deep bass, one drop drumming and horn choruses with echo and sweet singing as the Rasta period came forward...Seeing the original stars still performing today, especially U-Roy and Ken Booth, Stranger Cole and Derek Morgan is a treat..Lively up yourself and enjoy this blessing, straight from yard!

A very Jamaican take on some of the remaining Rocksteady icons still rocking it. Not perfect, but well worth a view. The new material is beautifully recorded - a fun watch.

Great documentary ! I love videos that explain things I never understood in my early life .
I’ve always been a fan of Reggae and No Doubt’s Rock Steady album, now I know why .

I was glad to see that someone had the foresight to compile this wonderful tribute to the genre. There are more Legends of Reggae than the late, great Bob Marley.

Hello? i paid $10 for unstopping reggae music to sleep to. Not all this yak-yakking-. Where do I get my $ back? No disrespect to any artists nor to their journeys but I wanted to just enjoy non-stopped music. *kisses* anyway

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay
Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2020
Less of a documentary and more of a "making of" rerecordings by rocksteady legends. Lots of footage of the legends rerecording, and then reminiscing about the past. Fine if you know what you're getting and this is what you want. I found it very hard to really learn much of anything other than how people felt about the old days. A little slow too.

Great to be reminded where it all started for what we now generically call "Reggae". As a buyer of Jamaican music since the '60s it is great to see some of the originators telling the story. Shame it wasn't done a little earlier when a few more were still around. Superbly shot and edited.

Wer Reggae Fan ist muss diese DVD gesehen haben- Alle sprechen immer nur über Reggae, Ska bzw Marley oder Dancehall, aber was davor war...der vibe, die Art wie über die old times gesprochen wird und die hochkarätige Besetzung macht ein mehrmals schauen unumgänglich- take your time, take your time, take it easy, no need to hurry...didididi...das sind jahrtausend tunes. allein schon die hunderte von cover und remixes der besprochenen hits sagt doch alles. rocksteady forever, so watch this, now!

der film ist eine wunderbare doku für die entwicklung dieser musik und zeigt dass die menschen dort arm, aber glücklich waren. wer sich ein bisschen für reggae interessiert zieht sofort die dancing shoes an. das englisch ist zu 95% sehr gut zu verstehen. für jamaicaner im alter dieser sänger, die im ausland leben (und zwar nicht in ländern wie UK, USA oder Canada) ist das ein schönes stück erinnerung an ihre kindheit / jugend. ich kann diese dvd nur empfehlen ! me love it !

Reviewed in Germany on January 3, 2011

Der Film Rocksteady ist wie die gleichnamige CD eine Wohltat für die Seele oder wie Stranger Cole, der als Erzähler durch den Film führt, treffend formuliert "Calm and easy". Regisseur Stascha Bader gelingt ein feinfühliges Portrait der kurzen Rocksteady-Epoche Ende der Sechzigerjahre. Die wunderbaren Musiker und Sängerinnen wirken echt und herzlich und man wünschte sich, diese Zeit miterlebt zu haben. Fazit: Ein Film, der glücklich macht.
