There isn't much information as to the exact year when Reggae music was born. However, during 1960s, the local Jamaicans used to mix up the sounds of American R & B, Pan-African and Caribbean music to produce Reggae. The drummers used to stress on 2nd and 4th beats, which in unison with guitar, piano and bass used to produce a distinctive sound termed as "upside-down R & B" or SKA. Initially, it used to be played in bars to entertain the customers. It wasn't only a sound but a complete picture of Jamaican culture exhibiting their emotions and feelings. A major portion of the songs is in their local language, "Jamaican Patois". Although many singles like "Say What You're Saying" and "People Funny Boy" became popular during the mid 60s. But the first authentic Reggae album hit the music stands in 1968 with Larry Marshall's "Nanny Goat". Whereas, Johnny Nash's 1968 hit "Hold Me Tight" introduced the Reggae music to the Americans, which was followed by The Beatles "Ob-La-Di , Ob-La-Da". Reggae music's popularity also influenced the motion pictures and the 1972 hit "The Harder They Come" generated a lot of interest for Reggae within the US. On the other hand, Bob Marley with his band "The Wailers" was busy promoting Reggae music locally. Eventually, Marley got his first international break in 1975 with his breakthrough song "No Woman, No Cry". The popularity of Reggae music never faded since then. Even The Grammys has introduced the category of "Best Reggae Album" in 1985.
