On February 9th, 1962 Jamaica signed an agreement to become an independent nation within the British commonwealth.
In an bid to celebrate this, BBC4 brings us an evening of Jamaican Reggae. This'll include a documentary that promises to delve into the world of reggae; examining everything from the music, the bass lines and the spliff - culminating in a collection of concert footage and a 1979 gig from The Specials.
