Echoes Magazine - December 2017

Echoes Magazine grew out of Black Echoes and continues to provide in-depth coverage of most forms of black music, including reggae and dancehall. My contributions to this last issue of 2017 includes interviews with front cover star Hollie Cook and Jesse Royal, a round-up of the year in reggae and the usual singles and album reviews. The latter includes new releases by Little Axe, Ken Boothe, Benjamin Zephaniah, VP Records and Randy Valentine, whose New Narrative is our Reggae Album Of The Month.
