Hi all
just had a beautiful! girl and of course I'm playing lots of music for her. Mainly classical, Mozart, Beethoven, Telemann, Bach among others, and classic jazz (Nina Simone, Ella Fitgerald, Stan Getz, Armstrong, Reinhardt...
Reggae music I've only played Jackie Mittoo's 'reggae magic' for her. I would like some suggestions in the style of 'reggae magic', some mellow reggae...I think strings make it more relaxing...anyone? suggestions in other styles also welcome.
Thanks
Peace

What a wonderful thing. I'd recommend Rico - Man From Wareika. Not that much strings but brilliant trombone lead and beautiful arrangement.

Thanks kalcidis, I had thought of Man of Wareika too, she will have a taste today. Right now she's with George Faith 'To Be a Lover', first contatct with Perry!

could someone move this to the main section please?
Thanks

HARRY MUDIE meets KING TUBBY
nice instrumentals with strings

Gladstone Anderson It May Sound Silly

John Holt "Time Is The Master"

Especially the infants _need_ Nyahbinghi. Great for lullabies and all soothing purposes - not to forget that it happens to be the rhythm of our lives.

Iternally blessed be JAH children.

i was thinking about this too, as we'll have a boy end of may. i will go for bim shermans miracle album with indian strings, beautiful and soulful

yeah, I have that Bim Shermans album, will try it soon...the other one 'What happened' will come next.
not sure however how Nyahbinghi would work, its a difficult rhythm...
Rocksteady seems to work fine.
Thanks all for suggestions
