Always loved me raggae. Fifty years ago I saw Desmond Dekker, the Upsetters and the Pioneers at the Ilford Palais.
All this bollocks about Bob Marley being godfather of reggae is just that - bollocks. If there's a godfather it has to be old Lee "scratch" Perry.

Signing Off by UB40 is a classic album, unfortunately after their success with Red Red Wine they became a covers band, absolute dogshit.

A great place to start is the Soul Jazz Studio One series. Soul Jazz bought the huge Studio One back catalogue from Clement Dodd the founder before he died. Some it was unreleased.
They have released much of it in a series divided into sub genres like Lovers Rock, Dub, Roots, Funk Reggae, Soul Reggae, Ska, etc...
Tons of great classic tunes from THE most prolific & top studio in Jamaica.
A good way to find artists and styles you like.

Lovely genre of music, so varied. Have a listen to Alborosie and Prince Fatty both very nice. If you love poper vocals have a listen the Heart of the Congos, by the Congos. As loads of others have said you don't have to like it

To be honest Sold0, Bon Jovi and Metallica make me feel the same way as you. Not a huge fan of big mainstream metal or rock, too limp or bloated.
