The Mighty Rootsmen features the unparalleled talents of Reggae superstars
Toots Hibbert, Luciano, Gregory Isaacs, Michael Rose, and the rhythmic prowess of Sly & Robbie, Mikey Chung, Robbie Lyn, and Sticky Thompson, alongside Zap Pow Horns members David Madden, Calvin 'Bubbles' Cameron, and Glen DaCosta. A groundbreaking collaboration - it is a celebration of reggae's iconic artists, seamlessly blending the genre's rich rhythms with rock and soul classics.
Brought together by producer Ralph Spall (Paul McCartney, Billy Joel, Cat Stevens) and recorded at the famous Anchor Studios in Jamaica. The album's unique sound comes from the decision to let the musicians' instincts drive the creative process, striking a balance between homage and innovation. Featuring classic tracks from the likes of Tom Petty, The Steve Miller band, The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac. It is produced with a reverence for authenticity and musical mastery. This once-in-a-lifetime project brings together a dream team of Jamaican legends, paying tribute to their artistry and the art of collaboration.
This is Timeless classics with a reggae supergroup. Tracks like "Fly Like an Eagle" showcase Steve Miller's unexpected, soulful guitar work layered over a reggae groove. Meanwhile, Mike Campbell's guitar on "I Won't Back Down" deepen the album's connections to rock royalty. Yet, the project remains firmly rooted in reggae. "My intention was to try to do something that hadn't been done in reggae before by putting these giants of the genre together to make a record that leaves you with good feelings, they're very recognisable as the songs they are but have a distinct reggae feel and stamp." reflects Ralph.
The Mighty Rootsmen stands as a tribute to the enduring power of reggae music--an album that brings joy, good vibes, and a profound connection to musical history.
