The Best Bowie Live Album thread made me relisten to Stage. I've noticed this phenomenon of musicians taking a song that was not originally reggae and making it kinda reggae live.

Not sure if the "He come dancing across de water man" section in the "Live Rust" version of "Cortez the Killer" is supposed to be reggae or not - or it was just that Crazy Horse couldn't pull it off.

This is rancid, and has the worst bass solo you've ever heard.

at first i thought that version of "money" wasn't very reggae but they really do go there in the middle

Bordering on elder abuse to force poor old Nick Mason to attempt to play reggae.

Cue that clip of Axl Rose screaming “gimme some reggae” prior to woeful cod reggae breakdown in their woeful cover of Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door - per first post, I didn’t know Dylan was the original offender

Axl Rose again, at 6:40

ok
sometime in the late 1980s the Cure started doing an alternative outro to 10:15 Saturday Night and as a teen it sounded me like they were going for something that was kinda reggae -
this occurs at precisely 1:35:47 in their Glastonbury 1990 set - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7dhiw4l4oA
am I hearing something that isn't there? I would value a second opinion. as far as I know this is the Cure's only dalliance with skanking

I'd say it counts but only very briefly.

"gimme some reggae" happening at multiple shows makes it so much better lmao
― ufo, Sunday, 13 August 2023 11:17 (one year ago)
think it’s on Live Rust, but Neil Young’s outro on “Cortez the Killer” was the immediate one that came to me.
