Not sure I feel worthy enough to post Bob or Mr. Tosh but I will for these guys!

The best Steel Pulse album IMO is Live in Paris 1992 but couldn't find any videos.

I had trouble just picking five!

The video is a little shaky but there isn't a whole lot to find out there.......



Their best albums IMO are "Midnight Landing" (2003) and "Bass Chalice" (2005) but most songs are instrumentals.

Some may be thinking that reggae is pretty limited but many genres morphed from it. Can't even scratch the surface with it all.
The first style that goes back to the beginning is dub and it really exploded during the last few decades, especially in the electronic scene.
Then we have dancehall, which also mixed with hip hop and R&B and finally, dubstep came on the scene less than a decade ago.
Way too much to cover but I'll throw in few just to give examples. Make sure you have your sub woofers on!



Sean's got dancehall covered.....



This is a "mild" dubstep version of Collie Buddz



I say mild because dubstep can get pretty wild!

Here's another style using dub.....



Ott is like the Pink Floyd of dub!



O.K. back to reggae! ;D

Haha! Very nice thread. I've been listening to reggae for almost 30 years now. I'll post a few here soon. Very obscure

Then we have....."Ska" :icon_scratch:

Ska is a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s and was the precursor to rocksteady and reggae. Ska combined elements of Caribbean mento and calypso with American jazz and rhythm and blues. It is characterized by a walking bass line accented with rhythms on the upbeat. Ska developed in Jamaica in the 1960s when Prince Buster, Clement "Coxsone" Dodd, and Duke Reid formed sound systems to play American rhythm & blues and then began recording their own songs. Some suggest ska dates to earlier times, however. In a 1959 interview, Prince Buster stated his great-grandfather played ska in the 1880s. In the early 1960s, ska was the dominant music genre of Jamaica and was popular with British mods. Later it became popular with many skinheads.

Could have put this in the cover song thread or "Time to Rock" since it's a cover of a famous R.R. song, but Peter Tosh will always belong on the reggae thread!

Pat, you just won the Shaggy contest!
Yes, I vowed in my head that if anyone posted Shaggy, I would counter with Apache Indian, who also had the hit "Boom Shack-A-Lack" but I won't be playing that track.

Oh no, I have a special song in mind.....
