This remix of Carl Douglas’s 1974 smash hit, ‘Kung Fu Fighting’ came out a few years ago. It takes us out of China and across to Japan. This version come from one of the most successful reggae-dub outfits to come out of Japan, a group called Audio Active.

Anchor Marco Werman tells us about the latest effort from reggae super-group, the Easy Star All Stars. The mostly Jamaican reggae super group has made a living out of reinterpreting concept albums in reggae and dub. Their current project targets the very FIRST concept album — the Beatles’ “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.”
