re the bible, they were definitly playing reggae according to winston reedys song borderline:
according to revelation, chapter 4,
behold i look and the door was open,
and i heard a sound as if trumpets were playing,
and deep in my heart i know, sweet reggae music yeah...

and what a nice tune that is too.

I remember in the very, very beginning of my reggae listening I would only want to hear tunes that had horns. Gradually I accepted tunes without horns. It also took me some time to appreciate tunes that didn't feature the pronounced rhythm guitar "skank".

Re sufferers choice lyrics Yep, that's true.

Perhaps the earliest example of that mournful, dread horns sound is Don Drummond's sixties ska classic Far / Further East. On the original sixties 45 press the label reads Far East (The Trolley Song). The Trolley Song is a breezy show tune included in the 1944 Judy Garland Hollywood vehicle Meet Me In St Louis. If you listen to both songs you can hear that Don D has indeed taken his inspiration from the Judy Garland number, although he has played it in a minor-chord style and the whole atmosphere is downbeat as opposed to the upbeat original. In truth Drummond's arrangement may as well be a totally different tune. Was Don a friend of Dorothy?

No horns but this backyard performance by Ras Michael comes close to what I consider an "ancient" aesthetic.
