Hi,

thanks for the info...I would just have two more questions about books:
- I am currently re-reading "Reggae Bloodlines - In search of the music and culture of the jamaica" from steven davis (+photos by peter simon)and I really appreciate it. Do you know it? What do you think about it? any comments appreciate...
- Some friends again mentionned the "Bass Culture" book...is it hard to find? Does anyone know where can I get it in London? It's certainly a stupid question but it will help me not to order in a *** library and wait for weeks before delivery!

many thanks

Check amazon.uk.
They got for cheap
search reggae and you shall find.

Bass Culture is a great book, but very intense, Depending on your grasp. I am about to read it for the second time, as i think it will make much more sense this time.

Now i lick one Chalice

yeah i have that book its awesome its like a time line of how it went from rocksteady to roots to dancehall to british reggae - to sean paul and all the other new people yup its a must have book for all reggae lovers.

king g, bass culture would make more sense, and make for better reading if you could edit out all or most of the political content....
