Inhaltsangabe:

The Rough Guide to Reggae is the only book of its kind available. The first two editions of the Rough Guide to Reggae were the top-selling books on the subject, and widely acclaimed by the music press and fans alike. Illustrated throughout with over 400 pictures, many of them exclusive photos, the book also features exclusive interviews with reggae's top stars, and reviews over 500 albums. 2003 and 2004 have been the most successful years for reggae music on a global scale since the heyday of Bob Marley, with singers such as Sean Paul and Wayne Wonder regularly topping the UK and US pop charts. The new third edition of Rough Guide to Reggae is fully updated to cover this latest wave of Jamaican musicians, while not stinting on newly discovered recordings and reissues of classic albums of the past.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Steve Barrow runs the successful and highly-respected reggae record label Blood & Fire. He has contributed to the reggae scene for over 30 years: as a historian, record-shop owner, A&R man and consultant for Island Records and Trojan Records. Peter Dalton is a journalist, collector and contributor to numerous reggae websites and Dub Catcher magazine.
