To everyone interested in Jamaican music and especially for those who think that reggae is defined by Bob marley and Sean Paul, check out these great links:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/aboutmusic/feat...ry_intro.shtml

http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/bluessoul...e_reggae.shtml

You'll probably find everything you need to know about the origin of the sound system culture. It'll give you a comprehensive view of the evolution of jamaican music from ska to dancehall, passing by rocksteady, roots and dub!

Tell me what you guys think...

yes and no

there are still mento bands in some tourist areas doing the tourist thing, but there are also some serious mento revival groups that get featured at times like independence

is it alive as in still developing etc, no not really
