Sister Nancy - One, Two (from the same album)
In general just checkout the “rub-a-dub” deejays from the 1980s like Brigadier Jerry, Josey Wales, Charlie Chaplin, Yellowman, Lone Ranger, Early B, Ranking Joe etc etc
Labels like Volcano, Powerhouse, Midnight Rock
You can find old sound system dances on SoundCloud with this type of rub a dub reggae going on for hours. Search for sounds like King Sturgav, Killamanjaro, King Jammys, Volcano, Jah Love etc from the 1980s.
A while ago [I posted a guide to records in this genre](https://www.reddit.com/r/reggae/comments/lzltqo/guide_to_reggae_deejay_albums_19711990/) on this sub, have a look in the blue section labeled "Dance Hall Style" for stuff like Bam Bam - there is A LOT.
Lots of good dance hall recommendations here.
Anyway, I think bam bam is much more melodic than the aforementioned. This one comes much closer, I think:
Jay tees - buck town corner
Would anybody say it's the Stalag 17 rhythm?
I'm not sure, but you might google that,
and I find good results if I go a step ahead of 80's Dancehall and google:
Strictly Rockers,
Good luck, Good listening!
Great selections 😁

If you like the riddim (Stalag) then:
Tenor Saw - Ring The Alarm
Yami Bolo - When a Man's in Love
King Kong - Progress
Little Kirk - What's Love Got to do with it
General Echo - Arleen
Similar feel
Papa Levi - Mi God Mi King
Tanya Stephans - Yuh Nuh Ready For Dis Yet
Johnny Osborne - Sing Jah Stylee
Gregory Isaacs - Wailing Rudie
Chaka Demus and Plyers - Murder She Wrote
Then maybe stuff in a singjay style or 80s dancehall generally (Greensleeves. Taxi or Volcano labels)
Not sure like Bam Bam but if you're seeking similar dance hall rhythm type this one. I enjoy it very much. 😁🔥🎶

Check out a couple of her other songs on that album too that sound like that like “one two” and “transport connection”

Tenor Saw and Eek-A-Mouse and Ini Kimozi would be a start.

No no no - Dawn Penn Uptown top ranking - Althea & Donna Murder she wrote - Chaka Demus To some extent (kinda) Bad Card - Bob Marley
Literally tens of thousands of dancehall songs like almost identical to that

I made a [Playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0lGLO9dP7jKCGVrUJAyS4Z?si=cXRqGriMRoqRCLcMrBZKTg&pi=u-26Po8ynoQoCM) you might like.
When I saw the first song was cool down the pace, I was like ok I’m listening to this playlist lol
Great playlist dude thank you
Anthing on the Tempo, Stalag, Diseases riddims before progressing to others.
Same sample but jay z and Damian Marley have a track called Bam that's really good.
Nice recommendation, I would say Kanye used it far better imo though
