His recent 'midnight rocker' album with Adrian Sherwood is good too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeTheMisfit Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 As someone who knows next to nothing about Reggae, could somebody point me in the right direction? Where should i start? I've looked at a few Spotify playlists but i'd rather take advice from the folk on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taunton-hobbit Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 IMHO you could do worse than listening to some Bob Marley, which is often slagged off as 'white mans reggae' but is well produced and crafted, 'Legend' is a good starter. 😎 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tandro Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I was gonna say the same. If someone just wanted to start somewhere, the 'Legend' album by Bob Marley is where I would point them. They could then work back from there, or forwards depending, or branch out into something a bit specific (But you guys in here know way more about the lineage than I do) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Mike, good to have you here, quite difficult to say really because there’s a whole world of reggae out there and lots of different styles, depends what you like, there’s a Spotify playlist of some of the songs here you might like to listen to some of my favourites are black Uhuru barrington levy Roots Radics (Flabba Holt) and I can definitely recommend Sly and Robbie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The equivilant to the 'standards' for Jazz and Blues are the classis 'Riddims' in Reggae (not quite the same as what musicians would usually call a rhythm, they're drums and bass and often include guitar and horns etc.) They're often used on many different reggae songs but with different vocalists. Here's a playlist of the most used ones: 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tandro Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Yes people, flicking through that list had me remember some tunes (I'm a late 80's, early 90's boy). This one here, used to put me in a zone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 I was looking up Jason Arthur Welsh bass player after listening to a track earlier, and he played on these 2, really good player and nice Basslines and this really sounds like old school Aswad and steel Pulse with Brinsley Ford 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
