PanyardJumbie Jam Reggae for Steel Drum Song Book
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Reggae for Steel Drum gives Jumbie Jam players eight songs to work through with a play-along CD for practice or band-style jamming. Every song supplies melody, harmony, and chord-strum parts, allowing several players to take different roles. Letter-named notes correspond to the markings on a Jumbie Jam, while standard notation is printed alongside them for readers developing that skill. Although written for steel drum, the book can also be used with other instruments.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Small group sessions assigning melody, harmony, and chord-strum parts across the eight songs.
- Practicing with the included play-along CD before joining a band.
- Learning standard notation while using letter-named notes that match a Jumbie Jam.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need repertoire outside the book's eight reggae songs.
