VA - The 100 Greatest Reggae Songs of All-Time (2021 Super Deluxe Edition)

Due to the popularity of the K-tells Reggae post here is another great compilation.

The 100 Greatest Reggae Songs of All-Time (2021 Super Deluxe Edition) (2021) After considerable research and scrolling over lists and lists online of the best reggae songs ever made, voted for on many forums, and based on the comments and praise online, plus my own recollections from listening to all the great reggae John Peel used to play, I finally settled upon my top 100 of all-time.

Along with so many classics, a number of great instrumental dub versions of the A-sides which often appeared on the B-sides have been added to the original singles. So many tracks here you just never see on regular run of the mill reggae compilations, due to licensing, music rights issues, it's a fantastic compilation of classic reggae.

Enjoy
