Review:
by Dave Schmelzer, Pastor, Greater Boston Vineyard; Author, Not The Religious Type
Like most of my friends - all music-obsessed in our youth, some to the point of becoming music critics by trade for short or long stretches - I know only the highlights of reggae.
Of course I know Bob Marley. I know Jimmy Cliff. I know Peter Tosh. I know that Clapton and The Police made some money off of it. I have a dim memory of that "Red Red Wine" reggae remake. And I have a general sense of the stakes and contribution of reggae - the political protest that seems so at its heart that's oddly and powerfully married to an island "What, me worry?" sensibility.
