It is time for some Reggae Cymraeg Gorfodol (Mandatory Welsh Reggae).
Who better to provide it than that stalwart of the Welsh music scene, Geraint Jarman - a man who has had some reggae in his repertoire since the 1970s. In all that time he has never succumbed to the temptation to change his surname to Jahman, for which we should all be grateful.
The first track comes from his 1998 album "Eilydd Na Ddefnyddiwyd", the second is from a single that he released last year. You can find the single on the Ankst Musik site on Bandcamp, which I would encourage you to explore further while you are there. There are lots of interesting Welsh language new releases and reissues.
"Rheda Dy Ruthr Nefol Ras" - Geraint Jarman
"Gweld y Miwsig" - Geraint Jarman
This still might be my all time favourite slice of RCG/ MWR though.
