O’s Notes: The steady thump of leader David Solid Gould’s bass and Matthew O’Brien’s drums anchor the deep reggae beats we here on“Festival of Lights. The Temple Rockers revisit the roots of reggae, the musical profession of faith by the Rastafarians in Jamaica. There is an abundance of chants, and crisp horn melodies with the accompanying guitar chops from Nate Silas Richardson. There is much historical significance in the words, and Jewish melodies in this“party“music!
