Don't know whether it's minor key (I have no clue about music theory), but if I could recommend one rocksteady track it would be "Rocksteady" with Byron Lee & The Dragonaires from the Rocksteady '67 album!

"All I want to do is live, but I'm still a fugitive", this song is massive!

Oh, I just remembered, Lee Perry ~ I Am The Upsetter is a pretty heavy tune
