For spanish roots "Gondwana" comes to mind, they are a real roots and culture band with very nice melodies. I have only a few cuts by Los Cafres and I also like the cuts I heard.

Big up to our spanish roots brethrens

Never heard of Jah Bafana Band... but tribo de jah and cidade negra are great .. they have some good covers from Bob Marley songs...also like their version of "Redemption Song" , "Natula mystic" and "roots , rock, reggae".

CHECK OUT "LOS PREICOS" AND "ROOTS NATTY"

[rootsandculture]

mmm Los Pericos <--- not roots band. Only a few tracks are. The rest is a mix of diferent styles inclouding non-reggae, latin, dancehall. Don't recommend it.

Another great band: Filosofía (Naturalístico) from Puerto Rico think so.

[Willie_Roots (Puerto Rico)]

I Agree with roots & Culture. Los Pericos are not roots...

Filosofía & Cultura Profética are joining in a free concert here in PR this friday. (Nov. 18)

and there are rumors that they want to record it for a live cd.

Nuff Respect
