The Ultimate Guide To Great Reggae celebrates (and helps you find)
the greatest songs of reggae. It focuses on every style of reggae,
from mento to Jamaican R&B, ska, rock steady, dub, DJ roots,
dancehall and more. It opens with an exceptionally comprehensive
brief history of reggae. This is followed by 52 chapters, each
devoted to in-depth descriptions of the greatest songs for a
particular artist or style. Over 750 great songs are detailed, and
many more are discussed. More than 200 of reggae's stars, cult
artists, one-hit wonders and forgotten greats are profiled,
encompassing the music's full six decade span. Many of the songs
and artists receive their overdue first coverage in print. The
seven chapters on Bob Marley describe every one of his more than
600 recordings, his 200 best songs receiving detailed profiles.
Well written, insightful and engaging, The Ultimate Guide To Great
Reggae is more than an invaluable buyer's guide and more than a
comprehensive history. It's a love letter to reggae that's joy to
read. It's the one essential book for any reggae fan, and is
interesting and accessible for anyone who enjoys reading about
music.
