   The Story of Jamaica's Music

   

   A lively, authoritative history of Jamaican popular music that traces its evolution from rural mento and American R&B through ska and rocksteady into reggae, examining the musicians, producers, sound-system culture and studios that shaped the sound, the social and political conditions in Jamaica and its diaspora that fueled lyrical themes, and the genre’s international spread and lasting cultural influence.
