Summary: Excellent History of King Jammy and 1980's Dancehall
Comment: I bought this book solely on the title alone while I was just browsing on Amazon for Reggae books. If your into mid 1980's reggae artists and King Jammys then this book is for you.
I was impressed on the individual stories and pictures on Half Pint, Tenor Saw and many other artists in that era. I'd say there was a picture of some artist on every other page. This book focused on King Jammy's early start in reggae/dub to modern dancehall and soundclashes as well the singers/DJs that he worked with. I was very pleased to read the section on how "Sleng-Teng" riddim ruled the dance and revolutionized dancehall. If time permitted I would have read this book straight through. This is definitely a reggae collector's item to have with your crates of vinyl. Now I have to find a excellent book like this one but about Henry 'junjo' Lawes.
