Kwaku’s work is a testament to Brent’s contribution to the evolution of British black music and the commercial infrastructure to support it. His research contained separate sections on labels, shops, artists, radio stations and sound systems. In this version we have amalgamated these into a single ‘encyclopedia’ and added entries that cover the period between 2007-2020. The process of gathering Brent’s musical heritage is an ongoing task - there are many incomplete entries and gaps.

  • For Immediate Release Grand Park's Lovers Rock
    Contact: Sabrina Skacan The Music Center 213-972-3332 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Photos available GRAND PARK’S LOVERS ROCK CELEBRATION BECOMES TWO WEEK DIGITAL FESTIVAL FEATURING TOP DJ PLAYLISTS AND FOOD DEMONSTRATIONS On-demand Entertainment Focuses on Music and Food in Honor of Valentine’s Day and the “Month of Love,” plus a Live IG Chat with GRAMMY®-winner Aston Barrett, Jr. of The Wailers WATCH: February 12–28, 2021 on Grand Park’s Spotify, Mixcloud and IG Live Channels LOS ANGELES (February 3, 2021)—With an homage to Valentine’s Day, Grand Park plans to acknowledge love as a powerful and essential affirmation of self, community and joy with its annual Grand Park’s Lovers Rock celebration. For 2021, Grand Park, powered by The Music Center, is expanding its annual fête into a two-week digital festival with a focus on music and food. Rooted in the Reggae sounds of the 1970s and in Caribbean nightclubs in London, Lovers Rock is more than a music genre—it serves as a space of love and identity within the nuanced intersection of gender and expression. Viewers can celebrate the “month of love” with on-demand entertainment as well as recipes to make at home for Valentine’s Day by logging onto Grand Park’s digital channels from Friday, February 12 through February 28, 2021. Given COVID-19 restrictions and Grand Park’s commitment to keeping artists and the public safe from community transmission, the programming is pre-recorded; no events will take place in Grand Park on Valentine’s Day.

  • Production Notes
    PRODUCTION NOTES A Note from the Director The seed of Small Axe was sowed 11 years ago, soon after my first film, Hunger. Initially, I had conceived of it as a TV series, but as it developed, I realized these stories had to stand alone as original films yet at the same time be part of a collective. After all, Small Axe refers to an African proverb that means together we are strong. The anthology, anchored in the West Indian experience in London, is a celebration of all that that community has succeeded in achieving against the odds. To me, it is a love letter to Black resilience, triumph, hope, music, joy and love as well as to friendship and family. Oh and let’s not forget about food too! I recall each of these stories being told to me either by my parents, my aunt, and by experiencing racial discrimination myself growing up in the 70s and 80s. These are all our stories. I feel personally touched by each and every one of them. All my five senses were awoken writing with Courttia Newland and Alastair Siddons. Images, smells, textures and old customs came flooding back. All five films take place between the late 60s and mid 80s. They are just as much a comment on the present moment as they were then. Although they are about the past, they are very much concerned with the present. A commentary on where we were, where we are and where we want to go. Steve McQueen PRODUCTION INFORMATION Lovers Rock is part of the Small Axe anthology, which comprises five original films by Academy Award, BAFTA, and Golden Globe-winning filmmaker Steve McQueen (Hunger, Shame, 12 Years A Slave, Widows).

America had the garages, the basements, the small suburban clubs. Britain had the pubs. Britain's renaissance originated from the musicians who had been playing rhythm and blues and rockabilly in the pubs. The story was not all too different from what happened in the Sixties, when blues clubs kept alive the flame that the "teen idols" and Merseybeat almost killed. In the Seventies something similar happened again. While the charts were ruled by decadent stars like David Bowie and countless mainstream pop singers, the clubs were staging rhythm and blues amateurs who were playing far more exciting music. Punk-rock changed the face of the industry and, indirectly, helped these musicians get out of the pubs. From the punk civilization there emerged a new kind of singer-songwriter, solidly anchored to the roots of rock'n'roll and aware of social issues. Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, Graham Parker, Joe Jackson, Elvis Costello, and Tom Robinson, not to mention the demented Ian Dury and the even more demented Wreckless Eric, were the bards who launched a more sincere and vibrant approach to rock and roll.

It was very liberating and so much fun to make. It was great working with costume clear that each one deserved and needed to be a standalone film.
