If you have time Richard please link to videos or sound files of some top classic reggae tunes of yor, as it seems I kno nuthing about this. And of course anyone else who fancies contributing to the retro reggae discotheque, please do so likewise. |

You should try Jimmy Cliff's "Justice" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAfNQlBa44I and pretty well any Prince Buster - here's probably his best known "Al Capone" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaDx6_-WbLs. I always Loved this one from Derrick Harriott http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfmjpBDjiWc Then of course there were other reggae bands - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwxfsOXq2w8 |
