    One main thing I never take for granted is the fact that the English language is used. Try to imagine if Jamaica didn't use English.

      True. I can't as well quite imagine Rock and Pop in UK and USA without the English language.

    The American "Black" stations in the 70s also would not play Reggae, they just looked down on it, believe it or not (and that is not from a google search).

      True. That's why acts like Dennis Brown struggled to gain acceptance among black Americans despite all promotional efforts by A&M records (though the extent to which this promotion went, is questionable)

      Everything must have a pinnacle starting point, your logic is flawed and straight out of kindergarten.
      You do realise that Jamaicans had also travelled abroad and took their music with them don't you?
      You probably won't know this gem of a historical fact also, but the creation of reggae was also aided by other nationals that headed to Jamaica at the height of the bluebeat/ska era, namely Jackie Opel from Barbados and Lord Creator of Trinidad.
      As reggae made its way to Britain, the development was also in part to the west Indian influx and the coming together to play, make and enjoy the music, in fact, many Jamaican based singers and players of instruments, use to come to Britain for that unique British iteration to the genre. Errol Dunkley, Dennis Brown, Bob Marley, to name a miniscule few, were all here lapping it up. Another producer of note, of bajan extraction, one Dennis Bovell, produced and contributed to the artform even further. So your nonsensical comment is moot.
