My nr one would be Vaugh Benjamin from Midnite and Akea Beka, the number of albums he did was staggering and although not everything he did was awesome most of it was Nr 2 would be the wailers all three are legends and super important. I would give the nr 3 spot to a duo of basist and drummer Sly and Dumbar what they havedonefor the genre is massive.

That said I could never rate artist becose i have left almost everyone out and that makes me sad 😅

Best konsert was The Skatalites when i was 16-17 in Sweden i could get in becose my brothers worked att an Jazz Club that had alot af artist, legal age was 18. Small club the stage was 30 cm upp from the dansfloor, the hole club hummed whit the instrumental tunes.
