@@donhue4546 True indeed. Actually, I had decided to take in the entire period of the changing styles, other than roots (rub a dub/deejay, ragamuffin/dancehall). In fact, what beats me the most is that most of the artistes whose careers seemed to peak immediately after Bob's passing were all present and active during his lifetime. While some of them did make their modest marks alongside Bob, but were somewhat overshadowed by his larger-than-life image, the most seemed to be casual in their approach to the music, embracing more the feel-good, ganja-blazing, 'rudie' way of life then... Until Bob died and the whole world stood still in respect and appreciation! Only at this moment did it become clear how much Bob's music had penetrated and conquered the globe, far beyond the shores of little Jamaica! Then, the big scramble began; almost everyone seemed to wake up from slumber and try to put their acts together. While some artistes creatively competed over who would wear Bob's shoes, the rest tried to at least cash in on the big money-spinning machine reggae music had become. Of course, with the great promotional works of producers like Joe Gibbs, King Tubbys, Scientist, among others and of course, not forgetting the invaluable contributions of foremost presenters of that era, especially David Rodigan and Barry Gordon, the stage was set for an interesting musical revolution which saw reggae music conquering one continent after the other. Even until this day...

@@tonyogbata2022 been through the journey,and prefer the music from 1961-66,you missed out lovers rock,bangara,digital reggae,i tkink it was 1985 reggae went digital, 1979 we had 2tone,and ub40, and sugar minott,misty in roots was making it big in that year,and as for the artist most of them made thier name through rock steady,was only a marley when he was a wailer. we must remember the sound systems back in the 60ts,from there to here, weather it be,ried,dodd,buster,kinh edwards,tom the sebastian or byron lee,these guys were the pioneers,sadly most jaimcans never here of such men. still a mystery,to when ska actually started,,had many debates,and peoples claims come up short!!! oh well memories flooding back to my youth,when i use to listen to john peel,rankin miss p and lkj on radio to hear what the world of reggae had to offer,peace,
