Reggae Music

[Kariko]

I'm making a reggae playlist to listen to and cheer me up when the times get rough and things get me down. Any help with songs/artists would be greatly appreciated :) I got a few Bob Marley albums so im sorted with that.

You get lots of playlists/top 10/50's if you search google. See this one, for example - http://www.rootssound.com/top_Reggaesongs.htm

When you make the playlist, let me see it. I could use some reggae music on my pc :)

[Kariko]

Im not interested in other people playlists, most of them don't suite my taste! and googling takes time I don't want to waste but thanks for the link. What im looking for are good artists. :twisted:

Heres the playlist i've made for my Ipod:

Third World - 96 degrees in the shade
Zap Pow - This is reggae music
Aswad - Shine
Aswad - Give a little love
Capleton - That day will come
Burning Spear - I stand strong
Ziggy Marley - Love is my religion
Bunny wailer - Iron shirt
Steel Pulse - Roller Skates
Black eyed peas - Dum Diddly
Wailing souls - Equality

Anymore tracks or suggestions would be much appreciated!

Call me crazy, and maybe i'm just a conservative traditionalist (lol) but no Bob Marley? Really? I suppose you *could* be bored of them, but he's like, the ultimate popular top of reggae, and not to have him included seems a bit of a waste really ;). Ipods are big enough to accomodate a lot of songs :P

And if you wanted specific tracks, pick *any* of them, they are just about all reggae classics.

oo also, go to upstter.net, and down load some Radio Scratch sessions, so good, Upsetting Version Galore is best but you do get a bit of talking!

plus anthing by John Holt

beet down babylon, various artits have stratched (meaning copied) this rythm but all of them are have their own uniquness and are awesome. and i dont know who the artist are

[Treedude]

Anything by Toots and the Maytals if you're into more classic kind of reggae, can't beat them for a bit of chilled out reggae vibes

Also Damian Marley's Welcome to Jamrock album is awesome, so any tracks from there also :P (I'd recommend a specific couple but my favourite from it changes all the time :P)

Anything by Toots and the Maytals

thats the one I was thinking of but couldnt remember the name. They did a good version of Too Hot to Handle

Cheers for them and the help given to make my ultimate reggae playlist! :D
I'm a Dub fan ;) I've also looked up UB40 and have some songs of theirs.

Kariko, do you have a good dub selection? Ive got a good but fairly small selection. So would love some more artists and songs etc

[Spudzy]

the difference between dub and reggae is non-existent.

Everyones mentioned top reggae acts however....

Some bands that i like.

House of Shem- New Zealand reggae act
Katchafire- New Zealand reggae act
Kora- New Zealand reggae *slash* dub...
Fat Freddys Drop- New Zealand reggae *slash* dub

They are great...
i may be bias...

never heard of em....youtube em :D

Im all about shameless home-country promotion :D
