Reggae
One of my favorite genres. What are your favorite reggae songs? Who are your favorite reggae artists?
You can include ska, rocksteady, dancehall, and other style derivatives. I shall start with old school--1960s-1990s! Toots and the Maytals 5446 Was My Number: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nNLbAO_2usQ (Original) Bam Bam: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ldsaLw8478Q Yellowman Bam Bam remake: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5GmGvXLodKo Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-Nh5CapYICg Zungguzungguguzungguzeng: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HV46OGU7ksE Sister Nancy Bam Bam remake: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qXnT3LFTc-s Chaka Demus and Pliers Bam Bam remake: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zz-G25XMXr4 Murder She Wrote: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzP_NF06vpg |
I like this thread.
Jimmy Cliff Crank it up. Real LOUD. Another classic The one that I listened to over and over (trying my best to dance like no one was watching) Oh, great, now I have to go dig out the cds. No sleep tonight. |
I was like "where's AZTheta?! There she is!!!" :D I love Jimmy Cliff.
Let the record show, AZTheta was the first to post Bob Marley. I had promised myself not to post Bob Marley, The Wailers, and Peter Tosh until the fourth post. :p How dare you have reggae CDs stashed away collecting dust! :mad: Gregory Isaacs "Night Nurse": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6oYyG0KcvQ Toots and the Maytals "Pressure Drop" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rb13ksYO0s Desmond Dekker "Israelites" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83Y2hv-3UCM |
AH! you beat me to it! I was just listening to Pressure Drop! And you might remember that I saw Jimmy Cliff here year before last and you hated me for that.
Looking for Burning Spear - the Marcus Garvey album that I replaced with a cd. It better be in my possession still. My friends were like "What IS that you're listening to?" If you ever get a chance on a Sunday night, Rasta Riddims is a radio program on KXCI.org. You can listen online. 9-11 pm Arizona time (which half the year is Mountain Standard, the other half is Pacific Daylight. Yes it's confusing.) |
My favorite artists are still from the late '70s/early '80s. In addition to some of DrPhil's:
Derrick Harriott: "The Best of Both Worlds" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Qy3yRzXYs4 Sugar Minott: "Good Thing Going" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBj7Llo4wVM Sheila Hylton: "The Bed's Too Big Without You" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpBqj5UeRQU Horace Andy: "Bob Lives On" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMVVhgU3OO0 Peter Tosh: "African" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hxm1cU5Ewbw The Congos: "Fisherman" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDBvuGAZe3I Augustus Pablo: "King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbCrYBWh62Y |
Not a regular reggae artist, but an artist I like (and one who is very easy on the eyes)
Michael Franti:Hey now now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9JEo...=RD01FE9cPXE3M Love everything Bob Marley did, as well as UB40: Can't help falling in love with you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ajp0U...58AD6224E4725B Every Breath You Take: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2xAYdTFQzk And of course, Red, Red Wine http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYQ1lkP1j_g And Eric Clapton reggaes up "Wonderful Tonight": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiNpAyBuCd0 DrPhil, AZTheta, and Shellfish, thanks for your postings and for expanding my Reggae library! |

Is it okay to mix in some Ska? I sort of already did and so did you, DrPhil.
|
The OP says it is. :D I included ska (Toots and the Maytals, etc.).
|
Now I want to go to the Caribbean really badly!

41 Ska Songs:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcoNP...32991FBD9D52CB 9 of the videos were deleted so there are 41 ska songs. The songs autoplay and are also on the right side of the screen if you want to skip. |
223 views. GCers are some easy riders. Enjoying the music but not posting some music. :mad:;)

DrPhil, I am not worried about the tagalongs. Let them sit on their hands, while we dance.
So is this ska? Or reggae? Regardless, I send it to you with a smile and a friendly wave. |
