Chances Are is my favorite Bob Marley song, but I don't know if it's really considered reggae.
 
Alpha Blondy - I Love Paris

Big up to PSG striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic for putting this on his Spotify playlist... :smokin
 
I had forgotten about this guy until I heard this song on the radio today. Not a reggae artist per se, but has some solid reggae tracks IMO . . .

This is a great older doc on the Kingston reggae scene at the time (1984). The host is Jools Holland, a former member of a Brit band called Squeeze who went onto to fame hosting a show called Later With Jools Holland that featured every kind of musician/band from ever genre you can imagine.






Black Uhuru - Bull in the Pen

Song from the beginning of the vid above. I've proly seen this bad about 8-9 times over the years back in the day...
 
Kabaka Pyramid - Well Done

Produced by Jr. Gong...






Kabaka Pyramid - Liberal Opposer






Notis & Iba Mahr - Diamond Sox
 
^Chronixx tune is dope! Jr. Gong on the production! :pimp:

I also like the Chronixx joint on the Ram Jam riddim!

BTW when is some new Jr. Gong dropping? I can't believe its been almost 10 years since WTJ!
