Top 5 non reggae albums

Post by Taco B »

Just curious what other music you listen to.

My favorite non reggae albums:

1. Marvin Gaye - What's going on
2. Miles Davis - Kind of blue
3. Massive Attack - Blue lines
4. Curtis Mayfield - Superfly
5. Public Enemy - It takes a nation of millions to hold us back

Seems like most people on this forum don't have any non-reggae favorites. Strange since the influence of soul and jazz has always been there. Bob Marley really like The Impressions and Curtis Mayfield for instance.

King Tubby also loved jazz and had a huge collection. I just think that most of the people doesn't look at this forum page. Yunno they only write on the reggae forum page.
