And, if you'd like to add a nifty userbox to your userpage...
Please, write here any complaints and tasks you have with reggae-related articles.
* Create articles about reggae record labels.
** http://www.niceup.com/labels.html
** http://www.ireggae.com/record.htm
* Citations and reworking of [[Peter Tosh]]
* Many session/backing bands have name variants, eg: Sound Dimension = [[The Sound Dimensions]], and The Now Generation = [[Now Generation Band]]. Often there is no definitive name.
