Reggae Recommendations

[Linus27]

For some unknown reason, I have an itch to listen to some reggae and widen my understanding and appreciation of this genre. Not from a playing perspective but more of a listening appreciation. However, I know absolutely nothing about the groups etc. I do know a handful of Bob Marley track, mostly the well known ones and I really like them. I have heard of Aswad but only because they were in the charts in the 80's or 90's and sadly, I have heard of UB40 who I detest. So I guess I'm after the good shit to listen to. If Bob Marley is what Miles Davis is to Jazz, then who is John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Art Blakey, Charlie Mingus of the reggae world.

 

Any recommendations greatly appreciated.
