CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Fun -
With this book Ed Friedland covers the basics and origins of the reggae tunes and sound.
It is fun to do the exercises according ones ability and you get a good taste of the music. Some fingerings are quite hard and practise is required. The rythms can also be challenging but this leads to more in depth understanding of the material in the book. All in all I'm happy and satisfied buying the book.

fun all month - 
I've been playing songs from this book most days all month and i'm real happy to know them. my only complaint is that with cheap headphones the bass notes can be hard to hear. i think it might be better if only bass was recorded on one ear but the rhythm track is there as well and the bass drum competes some etc. but i got the book as a way to ease into learning bass clef. and to get some danceable finger exercises. and there are plenty of songs- 47. i like over 10 so you know for the price that's easily worth it as thats a lot more dancing in my practice and after a month the notes are sinking in. few enough notes are used that you can suffer a few seconds with the tab and memorize it and not mess with notation too. anyway as a tool for me- a beginning bass player with lots of musical skill in the other clef- this has been a fun book set. and given me stuff to do for over a month. and modelled some concepts i will probably use for years.
solid -
This book has been useful, the examples are tight little songs with well written bass parts. I am enjoying it alot.
Well-done!
Great primer on the Jamaican bass progresssion -
It gives good treatment to the whole evolution from early ska to Dub and Dancehall. Many of the important riddims are covered, though more full-song play-alongs on the CD would have been nice.

Great little reggae bass book -
I just started going through this book an hour ago and guess what? I'm done! It's a really concise and focused introduction to reggae music and reggae bass lines. There's no fluff, just the goods. It gives a little background and history, then presents examples of bass styles for you to play along with. The bass is isolated to the left channel which you can turn down to make up your own bass lines. This also lets you hear how the other instruments are arranged. It's short and sweet, and priced accordingly.
