"yes but" according to DebauchedSloth. This book is deep into 60s and 70s reggae and precursors that I am glad to find more about, has a few token efforts from the 90s, but simply nothing from the 80s (Charlie Chaplin, Fathead, Nicodemus, Eek-a-mouse, YELLOWMAN!!!!!!) The authors say up front their recommendations are colored by personal preference, but boy their tastes don't seem very reflective of the breadth of reggae out there.. Neil Foxlee said Impartial to a fault. The only reason I've given this four stars rather than five is because it stands in the shadow of the earlier, exhaustive and indispensable Reggae: The Rough Guide by the same authors. There is obviously a great deal of overlap between the two, with the new recommendations going to material (re)issued since the big Guide was published. Inevitably, this mini-Guide also lacks the latter's historical framework, but for concise, reliable and consumer-friendly CD coverage, there is nothing else on the market to compare.Perhaps the best endorsement I can give for the mini-Guide in . "A difficult task, but well handled." according to Kentsoul. That the Reggae volume of the "100 essential CDs" series needed two authors gives a clue to the difficulty in reducing Jamaican music to one simple list. While it begins and ends with Bob Marley's Legend for most listeners, Reggae music has grown so large in scope, variety and artistic motive that one term really isn't big enough to encompass it all. Frequent, sweeping changes in form, content, technology and public perception have resulted in sincere fans that see the music as something totally different than the next (equally devoted) enthusiast. What one loves about Reggae
Containing detailed reviews of 100 recordings, from The Skatalites to Sizzla, this guide covers the acknowledged classics and plenty of others that deserve to be.
We hope that you enjoy our efforts, even if you don't always agree, and that this book will expand the collections and musical enjoyment of newcomers and long-time aficionados alike. All the CDs selected in this book are, to the best of our knowledge, legally produced discs on bonafide labels. As will be seen, the Heartbeat label has over a quarter of the selections, principally due to their stewardship of the important Studio One catalogue; elsewhere, independents continue to lead in the re-issue and contemporary fields.
