I'm a reggae musician and this is the best brief reggae tutorial I've ever seen. I'm glad that all of the elements of the rhythm sections are discussed. Just watching a reggae guitar, reggae bass, or reggae drums tutorial will be a disservice to the player because all of these instruments work closely in tandem. They all must understand one another and each of their roles in the band in order to be successful.
This is so good. Compare this - which was a mainstream UK TV program 40 years ago - with current programming, and you see how far we've come (i.e. backwards - now you'd have to seek YouTube or specialist channels, while "normal" TV is brain burgers for zombies.
Remember this so well. Dry as a bone 6th form college style British TV meets Sly and Robbie. But if you wanted to learn something (and had a VCR) it was essential stuff.
This is from about 1982 I think so it's interesting that it is only a couple years or so from the huge sea change that came to Reggae with the ' Digital ' era.
On guitar and bass I usually play within the boundaries of blues or punk but damn! The way this group of sensational musicians have broken that down makes me feel like stepping out of my comfort zone. Brilliant stuff, thank you for the upload. Very useful to a beginner in the field of reggae! Wonderful.
what a wise word i heard today ❤💛💚
