Steve the Hat at RSL — Review & Photos

Last Monday guest Steve the Hat kept the Rocksteady Lounge grooving with a fantastic mix of Jamaican music…from classics to rarities, and ska to 70s reggae. Personal favorites included Go on and Cry (!!!), Such is Life (Lord Creator), Love is the Greatest Science (Kingstonians), and a killer instrumental version of Summertime, featuring Jackie Mittoo on keyboards. We look forward to his return for another guest spot in January!

Steve the Hat at the Rocksteady Lounge Tonight!

This Monday The Rocksteady Lounge welcomes Steve the Hat, all the way from the UK! Come and hear what he selects from his box of musical scorchers.

Steve the Hat’s DJ bio:

A DJ since the early 80s in New Zealand I started out in clubs playing Soul and Club music. I’ve played all over the world including New York , Sydney , Milan and of course London . A long time Reggae fan this became an increasing interest since the late 80s and has come to dominate my selection. Since moving to London in the early 90s I have collected with a focus on Ska and Rock Steady but continue to play all types of Reggae together with Soul, RnB, Jazz and Latin. My motto is ‘if it comes on a 45 and I like it, I’ll play it’. Expect at the Rock Steady Lounge a 60s and 70s selection of Reggae for a dancing crowd on strictly original 7”!

Viktor and I will bring you plenty of rocksteady and reggae too! TerryLee will greet you at the door and be sure to try one of Albert’s tasty drink concoctions!
