About the Book

Reggae Larger than Life: The Ultimate Reggae Music Fun and Games Book (First Edition) is packed full of excitement and many 'I did not know that' moments. These are bound to satisfy Reggae fans all over the world. With 250 exciting objective type questions, crossword puzzles, matching games and other fun activities that pay homage to the artistes, writers, producers and labels, the book is sure to leave you with lasting memories and thrills. These questions and games also provide the perfect platform for you to show off your Reggae music knowledge in front of your chosen audience. Each question will arouse your desire to have another and yet another one. Try this question and see for yourself... Born in Nine Miles in the Jamaican parish of St Ann in 1945, this "Buffalo Soldier" Reggae superstar was given a Lifetime Achievement Grammy Award, posthumously, in the United States on February 21, 2001. Who was he? (a) Peter Tosh (b) Bob Marley (c) Delroy Wilson (d) Dennis Brown There are 249 more questions where that one came from. Engaging with the questions and games is an entertaining way of strengthening your knowledge of Reggae, which is one of the fastest growing music genres around the world. So, if you are looking to enjoy a light moment at home, at a bar, a pub, a members' club or other social settings, this book is definitely for you. Even if you are embarking on a long journey such as a coach or train excursion, a flight or a cruise, this is a great source of fun and inspiration for families, friends, work colleagues and many other groups. You could even use this easy to read book as a handy reference guide, as you journey along Reggae's historical corridors. In this edition of Reggae Larger than Life, three of the most talented artistes of our time: Jack Radics, Da'Ville and G Whizz also share their sharp and inspiring musical insights. You won't want to miss this. I was brought up on a diet of great Reggae music. I thought I had seen all the possible ways that this genre could be enjoyed. But, this book shows that Reggae is indeed larger than life - Richie B (Radio disc jockey and Reggae chart compiler). Reggae and Dancehall music is in our bones and we just love the way it keeps us going. This book is bound to reinforce that - Da'Ville (Reggae/R'n'B singer). Reggae Larger than Life is yet another interesting by-product of the music of Jamaica. It is a real source of fun and education - G Whizz (Reggae/R'n'B artiste).
About the Author: Shaun Cain has been a huge fan of Reggae music for many years. He grew up listening to Reggae chart shows on the radio, especially the Eleven to Forty on the now defunct Jamaica Broadcasting Corporation, JBC, Radio One. The Top Ten Today chart show with the late John Wakeling on Radio Jamaica, (RJR) was an all-time favourite of his. Shaun also remembers watching Music-Music on JBC Television on Saturday evenings. Music-Music presented some of the most popular Reggae music videos. Richard 'Richie B' Burgess' radio show, the Beat among others and the emergence of IRIE FM with its all-Reggae format also helped to reinforce his love for the genre. Shaun is a freelance news writer for the UK edition of a popular Jamaican weekly publication. He has also worked in the electronic media as a reporter, producer and presenter for several years. He produced and presented the entertainment magazine programme, On Stage...Off Stage during the Sunday Swizzle with veteran broadcaster, Fae Ellington (JBC Radio). He also produced and presented the Entertainment Mix and Showbeat, also on JBC Radio. During these times, he interviewed celebrated artistes including General Trees, Frisco Kid, Ghost and Culture, General Degree, Luciano, Roundhead, Balloon, Beenie Man and T.O.K at the genesis of their career. In 1997 when RJR acquired the JBC's assets, he went to work for the new owners. There, he presented the Sport news and the road traffic update programme, the Roving Report. He left the station in 1998 to further his education. Education Shaun holds Marketing certificates from the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), as well as its Professional Postgraduate Marketing Diploma. In 1998 he enrolled on a postgraduate Marketing programme at the University of Lincoln. He graduated the following year with a Master of Arts Degree. He worked briefly in the banking sector in the UK before returning to full time education. In 2004 he completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Education and Training (PGCE) at the University of Greenwich. He subsequently pursued a career in teaching. In 2012, Shaun registered at Sheffield Hallam University. Three years later he graduated with his second Master of Arts Degree (Corporate Communication).
