Interview and studio visit with Frank Kozik in his studio in downtown San Francisco. October 2007. I spent roughly five hours arguing with Frank about politics and history, but instead of burdening you with that ridiculous interaction I've edited it down to the four minutes where we actually talked about his career as a toy designer.

I met Johnny Ace through the store and knew him for a few months before I found out that he was a long time and well respected blues bassist.

Met Bob once when they played Syracuse NY, maybe 79 ? Eight of us came from The Farm a " hippie commune" 80 miles away.We had just finished shopping for the Chef that traveled with them. and needed tickets. He pointed to a tall white guy in a cowboy hat. Chris asked me if my wife and I would like to meet Bob! After meeting a couple Wailers, whose spliffs I kept hoping they would pass, Bob comes in. Magic time. I'm instantly smitten. We talked and I told him we were brothers, long hair flowing, herb smoking, breakaway revolutionaries, he would have none of it. " Nah, the Bibble ( Bible) the only way!. I left disappointed he didn't see our similarities. This part white, yet black man, had an incredible presence, a devoted Rasta. I still feel to this day that he was a saint. My saints aren't perfect people, but are Natural Mystics!
I like it . But I thought you are going to show your work space . But , your process of creation , and the “ cook technique “ was quite interesting. 👏

A great human! Bless up.
So true !! awesome interview 🦍💯✊🏾
where the hell did did he find those wow amazing
People said "are you gay" "are you stupid" ? Clarify are those equal negatives? And are you 12? And he says "nobody ever told me what to do" ...... does that mean you are a great artist or that everything you create or say is ok? Donald Trump called and he wants his ignorance back.
Went here 4 times in my life so far i walk in the place for the 1st time and a tear fell from my eyes just to see all of these records. What a great place to shop for records respect sir.
Yes sir respect great tour it started for me in 1977 went to Jamaica and started buying lp's & 45 rpm Dub plates and have not stop. Great Video.

Andy Warhol called: he wants some his ideas back.
Everything is a remix.
Everything is a remix.
Everything is a remix.
Dnt be stupid .if you knew anything about art you wld know its linear in time .its also called progress .
@@Crosshatch1212 I never was 'stupid' but if you really think Andy Warhol didn't literally *invent* pop-art and paved the way for similar artists, then you're the obviously one who needs 'progress.' LOL This guy
Just love him!
what a douche
I hope you've got C02 extinguishers loaded in the house and CCTV 24hr recording priceless items!!!
I love real music lover like this man nuff respect
more plz ! i would love an hour long doco of roger talkng about his items showing us his items. he is so interesting. pity he lives so far away
Mi like that bro
Impressive Roger. I can't believe I got the private tour. Many thanks my friend.
This guy had a four hour reggae show on Saturdays back in the 80s on KCRW-FM in Los Angeles, long before KCRW turned yuppie-hipster.
Our show ran on Sunday afternoons, not Saturday, and equal credit must go to my partner, Hank Holmes, without whom and his peerless collection, I never would have dared to start the program. Thanks must also go to the great music director, Tom Schnabel, who put us on the air beginnig Oct 7, 1979 - Roger "Ras RoJah" Steffens
Frank kozik, professional badass.
I loved watching this interview. Shiah Coore is so right when he says "we just need to be a little more relentless" because like he said reggae music is great and even though the market isn't as large as other genres of music it can get bigger and it should. Love how he calls Junior Gong the prince of reggae, so true.
Love the Kozik!
VERY NICE WORK!! :)
TALENT!
Maximum Respect Bless! Peace!
beutiful art.thank you for inspiration
Yes Shiah and Damian are both very handsome, and look like cousins @ 1st view. I would love to be in the studio w/ these to, or even just a sound check. I love how Shiah speaks very relaxed, jamaican accents r my favorite ;)
Hah only 857 true bob marley and that know bout this collection
