PUBLISHER NOTE: The content was previously published as two books Ska Rock Steady Quiz Book 1960 - 1968 Reggae Quiz Book 1968 -1972. At last a comprehensive quiz on the ska rock steady and reggae era concentrating on the embryonic Jamaican music years of 1960-1972 initiated with the up tempo beat of ska drawing on the musical elements of Caribbean mento, calypso, American jazz and rhythm and blues circa 1960. During 1966 the beat slowed to the unhurried harmonious rock steady rhythm before entering a transitional phase to reggae in 1968. The influence of rock steady on reggae should never be underestimated but it is sometimes a forgotten era spanning less than two years as it did flanked between ska and reggae. The questions are set out in two sections with the first multiple choice, the next Tougher Than Tough comes without prompts, nevertheless with over one thousand one hundred varied challenges the book is more than just a simple trivia of questions and answers, it reveals so much more about the world of ska, rock steady and reggae.
