LIBRO PER CHITARRA CON CD E TABLATURE

Your passport to a new world of music
By Raleigh Green

SERIES: National Guitar Workshop
CATEGORY: Guitar Method or Supplement
FORMAT: Book & CD

Jamaican music is loved throughout the world for its laid-back feel as well as its intense, lively rhythms. Its influence is apparent across many musical styles, from reggae rhythms in the songs of popular bands like The Police, to ska beats in the music of groups such as The Mighty Mighty Bosstones and The Toasters. Even rap music evolved from the Jamaican vocal style called "toasting," and the influence of Bob Marley is evident throughout the world of music and pop culture.

Guitar Atlas: Jamaica teaches many of the styles that make Jamaican music so unique, from early movements like mento (the calypso-inspired style popular in the 1950s) to modern styles like dub (an electronic form of reggae). You’ll learn about the spiritual influence of the Rastafarian religion and explore the work of numerous Jamaican musicians, including Lord Flea, Count Lasher, The Maytals, The Skatalites, Lynn Taitt, Bob Marley, Black Uhuru, Ernest Ranglin, and many others. With a wealth of chordal and melodic ideas for the guitar, this book will improve your technique, increase your knowledge, and make you a more well-rounded musician.

The CD demonstrates all the examples and compositions featured in the book.

Guitar Atlas:jamaica is an introduction to the rich musical tradition of
jamaica. From a guitarist's perspective, there is much to love in jamaican
music, especially the guitar-centric styles of mento, ska, rocksteady, and
reggae. In this book, the most important jamaican musicians, guitarists, styles,
and techniques are demonstrated through numerous musical examples. Most of these
examples are meant to be played with a pick, although there is some fingerpicking as
well. You will get the most from this book if you have experience reading standard
music notation and/or TAB, as well as some experience with common open chords,
barre chords, and basic guitar technique. The Notation Guide on page 3 should help
you with any unfamiliar notation. Welcome to Guitar Atlas: jamaica, and let's begin our journey!

JAMAICAN HISTORY
The island of jamaica is located in the Caribbean Sea. It is situated 90 miles south of
Cuba and is a part of the Greater Antilles, a group of islands that also incluJe~ Puerto
Rico and Hispaniola. With a tumultuous history of slavery, war, poverty, and natural
disasters, jamaica is a true melting pot of mixed ethnicities. jamaica is smaller than the
state of Connecticut, however, the global impact that this Caribbean island has had on
the rest of the world is enormous.
When Christopher Columbus first arrived to jamaica in 1494, the native Arawak people
(also known as Taino Indians) had already been there since 650 A.D. Sadly, soon after
Spain's occupation of the country began in 1509, the indigenous population was wiped
out by slavery, disease, and war. By 1655, Britain seized jamaica and soon, through
intense colonization and a booming slave trade, Jamaica became the largest producer
of sugar in the world. After many uprisings, slavery was abolished in 1838. In 1872,
Kingston became the capitol, and in 1962, jamaica became an independent nation.

JAMAICAN MUSIC OVERVIEW
In the early 19th century, when the percussive musical traditions brought over by West
Mrican slaves mixed with the music of the European quadrille (a precursor to the square
dance), the jamaican folk music style called mento was born. Mento was jamaica's most
popular music throughout the 1930s and 1940s; however, during this period, American
jazz also became immensely popular in jamaica. By the 1950s, mento was still alive,
but American R&B had largely taken hold of the jamaican popular music scene. In
the 1960s, all of these various influences came together to create a unique jamaican
musical style called ska.
The quick tempo of ska was a reflection of the upbeat mood in jamaica after gaining
independence in 1962. jamaicans soon observed, however, that serious social problems
remained, and in 1966, the music changed with the mood. A new style called rocksteady
emerged, replacing the upbeat pace of ska with a much slower feel. A short-lived
movement, rocksteady was only around for two years when jamaica's most famous
musical style, reggae,was born. From the late 1960s to the mid-1980s, reggae became
a worldwide sensation. During this time period, the Rastafari (those belonging to
the religious and cultural Rastafari movement covered on page 33) garnered a strong
association with reggae due to the international fame of Bob Marley and others. English
bands like The Clash and The Police started to incorporate reggae sounds into their own
music. By the latter half of the 20th century, a wide array of reggae subgenres developed,
including dancehall, toasting, dub, raggamuffin, reggaeton, 2-tone, and lovers rock, just to
name a few. Despite being a small island, jamaica and its varied musical traditions have
greatly inspired and influenced musicians and music lovers throughout the world.
