Anyone interested in naming the best falsetto voices in reggae? I would be intrigued to see a list of the different singers, or perhaps comments & recommendations. I recognize that there are different degrees of singing in falsetto, as some use it exclusively and others toggle back and forth using it to accent certain notes. And then there are the harmonies, perhaps trios, which utilize this effect as well.
Here are a few of the obvious ones to get it started…
Horace Andy
Wayne Jarrett
Junior Murvin
Junior English
Eric Donaldson
Cornell Campbell
