 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.
