MMJ Reggae

Phone Went West is one of my favorite MMJ songs, and I have always regarded it as a reggae tune. I am most likely crazy, but I think it would be sweet if the boys put out a reggae album. Would anyone be into this?

Yeah, for about 3 songs and then I'd be like "hey this all sounds the same"

There was an article about "white boys" doing reggae, and PWW was up there on the list. Hopefully someone remembers that, and will repost it.

Well, if you look at some of the songs from EU, and where they went with "Soul Music" as a starting point, I'd say they could come up with a wonderfully varied "Reggae Album." I'd prefer it if it was just a "Reggae EP" though, and they worked some more variation into their albums.

(and I love reggae)

(Off The Record is a perfect example of how bad ass reggae can be in the hands of MMJ...that song is one of my favorites to hear live)
