	USATODAY.com - Roy, Duff, Brooks, Hotchkiss elected into Hockey Hall of Fame (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Roy's butterfly style is emulated by most of today's Quebec-born goaltenders, but it was relatively unusual at the time for a goalie to make most of his saves from his knees.
		But Roy stuck with the style, noting he had read that most NHL goals were scored along the ice at the time and the butterfly was the best position to block more of the net.
		Roy was busy with the post-retirement phase of his hockey career — the European draft of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League — when he received the call that he was elected.

		The former is a near complete set of U Roy/Duke Reid recordings with decent liner notes and credits for most of the original songs used by Daddy U Roy.
		Where U Roy's early style mimicked his sound system technique of rapid fire interjections made in the spaces left by the singers, on Dread In a Babylon he was free to chat as he saw fit and the combination of the unleashed U Roy and hot contemporary rockers riddims is devastating.
		I Roy (Roy Reid) took part of U Roy's name, most of his vocal sound and a lyric approach that was part U Roy and part Dennis Alcapone to weave a musical tapestry that made him one of Jamaica's most popular artists in the early 70s.

	U ROY
		U Roy s’inspira specialmente come stile talk-over dal grande Count Machuki, il primo DJ ufficiale dell’intera storia musicale jamaicana fin dagli anni ’60, il quale cantava presso il sound di Coxsone Dodd, infatti i primi DJ che cantarono presso vari sound system furono appunto Count Machuki e King Stitt per Coxsone Dodd.
		U Roy fondò anche il suo sound system “Stur-Gav” con Ranking Joe e con Jah Screw come selecter, ma durante i gravosi episodi accaduti durante le elezioni del 1980 nell’isola, il sound venne ricostruito e arrivarono nuovi DJ sulla scena reggae “Made In Jamaica”, come Charlie Chaplin, Josey Wales e Inspector Willie come selecter.
		Dopo più di 30 anni d’attività, U Roy possiede ancora il suo stile, il suo vecchio splendore di un tempo, la ritmicità giusta e le melodie dei suoi vecchi amici.

	Review - U Roy : Now
		U Roy, aka Ewart Beckford, is undoubtedly THE Godfather of all modern deejays.
		In fact U Roy returns to his Treasure Isle days, when he voiced over Duke Reid's tunes, leaving the original vocals of the singer(s) almost untouched.
		A truly joyful piece of music is the ska tune I've Got The Boogie which U Roy does in combination with veteran Stranger 'Jah' Cole.

	Distinctly Jamaican Sounds: The Godfather Daddy U Roy
		The man U Roy, born Ewart Beckford in 1942, started his career spinning tunes as a DJ for the sound system called Doctor Dickies in 1961.
		U Roy went on to record for Lee Perry, Keith Hudson and Duke Reid in the early part of his career and amazingly it was riding the Duke's rocksteady productions from '66 and '67 that he would cause quite a stir on the Jamaican music charts.
		Of course U Roy went on to record lots more during the 70's with slews of other producers and even had time to start-up and operate his heavily influential Stur-Gav sound system where other DJs like Ranking Joe, Josey Wales and Charlie Chaplin first made a name for themselves.

		His records may not get much attention on mainstream radio in Jamaica, but pioneer deejay, U Roy is reportedly enjoying a fair amount of popularity in France where his new Now album is said to be all the rage, as far as reggae goes.
		Bougard pointed out that because U Roy has been touring Europe for the past 25 years makes him a favourite with audiences on that continent which has traditionally been receptive to roots-reggae acts whose heyday was back in the 1970s.
		Born Ewart Beckford, U Roy is often considered the father of the modern deejay.

		U Roy was the first and greatest DJ/dub-artist of the roots-dub-reggae era.
		U Roy's dub cadences are hypnotic and when paired with the steady-yet-trippy, bass-heavy reggae riddms it becomes almost its own genre.
		I might call it "Space-reggae." U Roy presented a rhythmic style of dub that others who mimicked didn't seem to fully understand.
