<skabadip> here again!

<skabadip> you know that...

<Doctor> oh my god

<skabadip> they was trying to connect the bankomat!

<skabadip> i called names to them...

<Doctor> the what?

<skabadip> anyway...here we are

<skabadip> to remain with you...

<Doctor> thank you for sharing this with me...

<skabadip> ok..here there’s the guy that

<skabadip> was talking about Don Drummond

<Doctor> ok

<skabadip> he would like to know what do you think of his style and compositions...

<Doctor> his compositions are very effective

<Doctor> much more related to the rhythm rather than to the melody...

<Doctor> that is very interesting...

<skabadip> yes

<skabadip> we totally agree with you...

<Doctor> because most of jazzman work with harmony rather than with melody...

<Doctor> but his solos show he was a real jazzman

<skabadip> what to you tell us bout his phrasing...

<Doctor> i think it’s really special

<Doctor> you can tell he is him who plays

<Doctor> different from others (Ronald Wilson ;-) )

<skabadip> do you agree with us that..

<skabadip> he was used to spoke more with his trombone rather than with his mouth?

<Doctor> what?

<skabadip> it seems he was quite shy...

<Doctor> oh yes

<Doctor> everyone i know and knew him, told me he was a really reserved person

<Doctor> very introvert

<Doctor> quite shy

<Doctor> but his songs burn like DYNAMITE

<Doctor> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<skabadip> what do you tell us about the jamaican rhythmic sessions?...

<Doctor> ?

<skabadip> according to you, who has been the most important musician in creating this beat (the Ska beat)?

<Doctor> Lloyd Knibb!

<Doctor> he mixed Rhythm 'n' Blues

<Doctor> with Burru Drums

<Doctor> and Jazz and Calypso

<skabadip> do you know Arkland "Drumbago" Parks?

<Doctor> yes i do

<Doctor> not personally

<Doctor> but his recordings, yes

<skabadip> :-)

<skabadip> here we think that for the development of Reggae music

<skabadip> Drumbago was more important than Knibbs

<Doctor> do you really think so?

<skabadip> yes because the fundamental difference is that...

<Doctor> was he playing with the Supersonics?

<Doctor> i think so

<skabadip> Knibbs

<Doctor> you could be right...

<skabadip> no

<skabadip> he use to play with the Prince Buster Allstars

<skabadip> and in some sessions at Randy’s

<Doctor> but later...

<skabadip> he played

<skabadip> il fischietto

<skabadip> in the Clancy Eccles’ Dinamites

<Doctor> oh, i didn’t know that...

<skabadip> eh eh

<Doctor> oh oh

<skabadip> fired!

<skabadip> :-)

<skabadip> ok..maybe we can make a break

<Doctor> this was important for the Reggae music?

<skabadip> we sended some pictures

<Doctor> why?

<Doctor> now?

<skabadip> bloom photos...

<Doctor> oh

<Doctor> will i see my friend?

<skabadip> about Drumbago..

<Doctor> thanks

<skabadip> you are welcome...

<skabadip> regarding the Drumbago affair

<skabadip> i am not a drum player

<skabadip> but the sound

<Doctor> how many? five?

<skabadip> Drumbago’s sound..

<Doctor> yes?

<skabadip> (yes eh eh)

<skabadip> the sound was similar to Reggae

<skabadip> even when Knibbs was playing a Ska rhythm

<Doctor> nice pictures
