Re: Reggae Guitar Solos

I would say that in reggae there are plenty of guitar "solos", they're just hard to hear, I mean they are sort of hidden. For example, listen to Noah's Ark (Eek-A-Mouse), Mind Who You Beg For Help (Culture), Duppy Or Gunman (Yellowman), There Is No End (The Abyssinians), See No Evil (Prince Jammy),... These are just a few...

Nice one

Third World - Night Heat (dub to Cold Sweat)

It's Ska, but if it comes to guitar, this gotta be my favourite. Ranglin playing nice through the entire tune and that short solo at the end.. pure magic!

@Nilo82

great tune!! that solo has a lot of notes...! I imagine Ranglin asking to make a solo, then the producer say yes, why not, but you have to do it in 15 seconds... so he compressed it to fill in

When it comes to Ranglin I´m alright!
Saw him, Sly, Robbie, Tyrone this summer @ Fabrik, Hamburg.
