First there was Blues & Soul, later there was Black Echoes, between the two came Black Music and with it some of the finest and consistent Reggae journalism of the early 1970′s courtesy of one man, Carl Gayle.
From its first issue in December 1973 the monthly Black Music, though dominated by coverage of Soul music in all it’s forms, became the first UK magazine to take more than a token interest in Reggae Music. Here we present, in all their glory, the front covers of the magazine that featured Reggae artists between December 1973 and the end of 1976, plus a few from ’79 and the early 80′s.
