Suggest some good Reggae/Dub artists whose names don't end with Marley

Jah Stitch, King Tubby, Barrington Levy, Peter Tosh (Yeah, he's associated with Marley, but the guy's still good), Joe Gibbs (check out his compilations), Culture.

That's all I've got off the top of my head, but that should be enough to get you going in the right direction.

Jake gives some great reccomendations (never heard of Jah Stich tho!)

I would also rep for I-Roy Burning Spear, Leroy Smart, Max Romeo (he's had a long career and much of his stuff is Ska/Rocksteady, but he did some deep deep roots in the 70's - check out "War Inna Babylon"), Junior Murvin, Willie Williams, Black Uhuru, The Congoes (Heart Of The Congoes = regularly called the greatest Reggae album ever; also, produced by Lee Perry), Mikey Dread (African Anthem is a badass album) and of course the Cool Ruler, Jamaica's answer to Marvin Gaye: Gregory Isaacs.

I find jamaican music in general is well served by compilations. There's a crazy amount of stuff out there, but I highly reccomend the first Trojan Dub box set (3CDs, you can get it on amazon for eighteen bucks; there was a gigantic series of these with everything from Jamaican R&B to Children's Reggae) and the third volume of Soul Jazz's Studio One Roots series, which has "So Long Rastafari Calling" by Im & Count Ossie on it (Count Ossie was part of the original rastafarian movement, who in the sixties lived in the jungle and were pretty much ostracized by "respectable" jamaican society; they did these crazy drum cycles which became influential on 70's reaggae music.)

Desmond Dekker and the Aces, Ken Boothe, Shyam Moses, Toots and the Maytals, Alborosie, Katchafire, Soldiers of Jah Army (SOJA), Steel Pulse, Big Mountain, Easy Star All-Stars.

And if you don't mine listening to spanish reggae, you can't go wrong with Cultura Profética, Gondwana, Mid-Nite, and Los Cafres.

Toots, by the way, is still out there performing: my brother took his kids to see The Maytals last month, and said the show was just as intense as when I took him to see them back when I was in college.

I would've mentioned Dekker, Toots, Ken Boothe and other guys like that, but they're more Ska and Rocksteady than straight out Reggae, and I didn't know whether the OP was interested in that.

I'd actually argue that that 60's era that Toots and Dekker excelled in is more interesting than the 70's Roots stuff, actually (though it's all great.)

Good recommendations all 'round. Actually all the Soul Jazz produced compilations are a good starting point (and not just the reggae, for that matter).
If you like to look more into dub, I suggest checking out Mad Professor and The Scientist. Particulary his 'Scientist Meets...' series is all kinds of great.
Can't go wrong with a decent Lee Perry anthology. His 'Kung Fu Meets The Dragon' is hilariously flipped out dub with a chopsocky theme.
Furthermore, I really love Jackie Mittoo, who was the studio one keyboardist, has excellently chilled out reggae tunes.
And finally, for the European flavour, go for some productions from the On-U Sound studios in London.. just google Adrian Sherwood and you'll have your hands full. Has a more industrial flavour to it, but still rooted in the tradition.

The modern home of reggae and dub in the 21st century may surprise many of you - it's actually New Zealand. Kiwi reggae and dub is one of my favorite genres, so much so I dedicate a quarter to a third of my fortnightly aussie-kiwi community radio show to the genre usually.

Some of the best and brightest names to start with would be Salmonella Dub, Fat Freddy's Drop, The Black Seeds, Cornerstone Roots, Katchafire and Kora.

...but yeah, NZ is easily at the forefront if you want to hear whats actually happening in the world of reggae and dub today.

I like Shuggie Otis, the strawberry letter 23 cover he did blows my mind.

Actually if anyones interested and in the mood, I'm actually in the studio doing my show right now, and I'm playing reggae and dub from new zealand and melbourne for the next 2 hours.

www.pbsfm.org.au, just click on 'listen live' in the top right hand corner of the site.

i know he wrote it. but the brothers johnson or whatever released theirs first, so you constantly hear shuggies refered to as the cover.

Haha, yeah, some of my most pathetic music geek trainspotter moments have been debating whether the "original" version of a song means the one by the guy who wrote it or the one by whoever recorded it first.

No they didn't. Shuggie released it on his album Freedom Flight in 1972, one of the Johnsons heard it and they did the cover in 1977. That's the one that became a hit. But it is no question a cover.

All of this off topic of course, but I like my facts straight.
