Default Who's Your Favourite Reggae Artist Apart From UB40

I know there are loads of great artists missing from my list so if your favourite isn't there please choose "other" and specify.

Black Uhuru. Absolutely brilliant songs, with Sly and Robbie holding everything down.Plus I was in love with Puma Jones when I was 16, so there.

Oops - didn't see them so I voted for 'other'. Bah.

Hard to choose so think it would have to be Ken Boothe, reason' Crying Over You was the first reggae single I owned and his voice has always stood out, each record so pure and simple, outstanding reggae artist.

that was a hard one
john holt clips it for me
mainly because of 1000 volts album
dennis brown & gregory isaacs also legends
as for others...not heard his music

yellowman would be my vote


effing tough choice though
