Reggae Chord Changes

Sign in to disble this ad
Didn't (positivly) know if this belonged in recordings, so I put it here. If it would be better off somewhere else, I suppose a mod could move it...

Anyway, what are some typical, and not so typical, chord changes for reggae? I've only done a little research, mostly into the bassic groove structure.

Any help would be great! Thanks!

Oh, and if they could be in nashville (???) style (eg. I-IV-V), that would be great!

I also hear the V chord as a minor chord a lot in Reggae. It's a pretty cool sound, actually.

I-IV-V works. As does I-IV or I-V. I-VII is also pretty common.
