Bob Marley & The Wailers: Bob Marley (vocals, guitar, acoustic guitar, percussion); Aston "Family Man" Barrett (guitar, bass instrument, percussion); Julian "Junior" Marvin (guitar); Tyrone Downie (keyboards, percussion, background vocals); Carlton Barrett (drums, percussion); Alvin "Seeco" Patterson (percussion); Judy Mowatt, Marcia Griffiths, Rita Marley (background vocals). Marley's consistent (certainly by reggae standards) album career has proffered many great songbooks, of which EXODUS is just one good example. The singles "One Love" and "Jamming" will be familiar to anyone with even a passing acquaintance with Jamaican music, but just as vital are the touchingly vulnerable love song "Waiting In Vain," the title track, and the splendid "Guiltiness." This was the first album to feature Junior Murvin on guitar, while the expressive use of horns adds new texture to the established quality of the Wailers' backing. Like most of his work, vital for a comprehensive collection.

With a winning sound fusing reggae with both pure pop and topical politics, UB40 has sold over 50 million albums worldwide. Twentyfive years down the road from their groundbreaking debut LP Signing Off, the eight-man British reggae supergroup is still at the top of their game with the new album Who You Fighting For?. Weaving together the band's revolutionary roots and pop sensibilities, their latest is among the best, delivering originals including the title track, "Sins of the Fathers," and "One Woman Man" alongside a handful of irresistible covers, in grand UB40 tradition.
Reggae”是一种风格独特的流行音乐形式，最早由牙买加歌手鲍勃马里引入美国，进而风靡全球。许多歌手都演唱过具有“Reggae”风格的歌曲，但是走单一“Reggae”路线而又获得巨大成功的，恐怕只有UB40乐队一个。
乐队由不同种族的八个失业者组成，UB40是英国政府发放的一种救济金申请表的名字，看来这帮家伙饿着肚子也要玩Reggae。不过当他们的唱片获得了白金销量后，就再也不用填写UB40了。“Reggae怪杰”之称。
UB40的成员有Robin(主音吉它手)，Ali Campbell（主唱兼吉它手)，Earl Falconer(贝司手)，Mickey Vivrue（键盘手），Brian Travers （萨克斯管手），Jim Brown(鼓手)，Norman Hassan（打击乐手)，Astro(Reggae Toaster)。
乐队成员几经变易之后，1980年首次推出的专辑《Singing Off》取得了成功，1983年的专辑《Labour Of Love》在公众中引起不小的反响，单曲“Red Red Wine”不仅使他们在英国登上排行榜首位，而且还使乐队得到了国际声誉。随后的一系列作品使UB40“流行雷击”（Pop-Reggae）的地位得到了稳固。他们作品的风格源自牙买加SKA/Rock音乐，与纯粹的Reggae音乐相比，UB40的音乐更易被人们所接受。这支来自伯明翰的乐队创立了一种英国式的“雷击”旋律，并融合了柔和的歌声，流畅清澈的萨克斯管和轻松的“雷击”节奏是该乐队的特点。
