absolute beginners

this is a test-drive of the new template, and new home for the web presence of "Reggae Vibrations", originating from WTJU/Charlottesville, at the University of Virginia. since our old address is long-defunct (http://www.reggaetrain.com/reggaevibrations), and consequently, our information to- and response from- listeners has been sadly lacking: we can, and will do better in presenting playlists, information, and local performances focusing on the Word/Sound/Power of reggae music.

reggae... proof positive that you CAN think while your feet just "go".
