The classic Bob Marley album, the one that any fair-weather reggae fan owns, Legend contains 14 of his greatest songs, running the gamut from 'I Shot the Sheriff' to the meditative 'Redemption Song' and the irrepressible 'Three Little Birds.' Some may argue that the compilation shortchanges his groundbreaking early ska work or his status as a political commentator, but this isn't meant to be definitive, it's meant to be an introduction, sampling the very best of his work. And it does that remarkably well, offering all of his genre-defying greats and an illustration of his excellence, warmth, and humanity. In a way, it is perfect since it gives a doubter or casual fan anything they could want. Let's face it, the beauty and simplicity of Bob Marley's music was as important as his message, and that's captured particularly well here.
1. Is This Love
2. No Woman, No Cry
3. Could You Be Loved
4. Three Little Birds
5. Buffalo Soldier
6. Get Up Stand Up
7. Stir It Up

For Bob Marley, 1975 was a triumphant year. The singer's Natty Dread album featured one of his strongest batches of original material (the first compiled after the departure of Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer) and delivered Top 40 hit 'No Woman No Cry.' The follow-up Live set, a document of Marley's appearance at London's Lyceum, found the singer conquering England as well. Upon completing the tour, Marley and his band returned to Jamaica, laying down the tracks for Rastaman Vibration (1976) at legendary studios run by Harry Johnson and Joe Gibbs. At the mixing board for the sessions were Sylvan Morris and Errol Thompson, Jamaican engineers of the highest caliber. Though none of these cuts would show up on Legend, Marley's massively popular, posthumous best-of, some of the finest reality numbers would surface on the compilation's more militant equivalent, 1986's Rebel Music set. 'War,' for one, remains one of the most stunning statements of the singer's career. Though it is essentially a straight reading of one of Haile Selassie's speeches, Marley phrases the text exquisitely to fit a musical setting, a quiet intensity lying just below the surface. Equally strong are the likes of 'Rat Race,' 'Crazy Baldhead,' and 'Want More.' These songs are tempered by buoyant, lighthearted material like 'Cry to Me,' 'Night Shift,' and 'Positive Vibration.' Not quite as strong as some of the love songs Marley would score hits with on subsequent albums, 'Cry to Me' still seems like an obvious choice for a single and remains underrated. Though record buyers may not have found any single song to be as strong on those terms as 'No Woman No Cry,' Rastaman Vibration still reached the Top Ten in the United States.

Kaya Bob Marley $30.99$29.99
180 Gram audiophile virgin vinyl Import LP -Sealed
Kaya continues what has become an unspoken tradition in the evolution of Bob Marley & the Wailers discography — blending western sounds and motifs with the icons and traditions from the very core of Jamaican society. In fact, the very word 'kaya' is synonymous with marijuana in Rastafarian culture. Likewise, the album Kaya could be easily construed as an open love letter or musical paean to the lifestyle that Bob Marley so eagerly embraced and promoted. Themes of commonality and unity pervade this release more so than previous albums. Likewise, the overt political stances that had become somewhat of a moniker for Bob Marley and the Wailers are temporarily replaced by timeless compositions, such as the eternally optimistic 'Easy Skanking' and 'Is This Love.' Marley had not — as some proclaimed — gone soft, however. The light, at times practically giddy, rhythms on 'Satisfy My Soul' contrast the darker brooding sonic and lyrical images on 'Running Away.' The most pressings issues Marley deals with concern ever-increasing spiritual consciousness. Throughout Kaya, humble thanks is offered to, as well as guidance sought from, Jah — evidence that the spirituality that permeates the Wailers music is real and not lip service. Kaya could be considered the oasis before the political and personal eruptions that would inform and influence Bob Marley and the Wailers next studio releases Survival and Uprising.

When Bob Marley and the Wailers recorded their legendary 1975 London gig, little did they know of its lasting power. From the opening shuffles of Trenchtown Rock to the rabble-rousing Get Up, Stand Up, this brief recording captured Marley's combo of critical invective and languid musical power. The rhythm team of Aston and Carlton Barrett make time-keeping splendidly melodic as Marley's gently scouring voice gets woven in with his backup vocalists in a mellowly dazzling display. On fire, the band jumps into the discovery of its power without regard to keeping the songs tidy or reflective of anything other than the moment of execution. No matter the years between its original release and the present, this recording will always breathe. Between Live! and the later, longer Babylon by Bus, Bob Marley showed categorical know-how in the art of executing state-of-the-art performances in the era of arena rock's supremacy.

Bob Marley and the Wailer's 1973 release, Burnin' was their second for Island Records and it was released only six months after its predecessor, Catch A Fire. The ever increasing confrontational nature of the group's message is immediately made apparent on the opening track, "Get Up, Stand Up" and is eloquently re-emphasized throughtout. After this album Marley's partners, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer, quit the group, which thereafter was renamed Bob Marley and the Wailers. Reissued here on 180g Vinyl!

The Wailers' fourth album overall, Burnin', was their second for Island Records, released only six months after its predecessor, Catch a Fire. Given that speed, it's not surprising that several tracks — 'Put It On,' 'Small Axe,' and 'Duppy Conqueror' — are re-recordings of songs dating back a few years. But they fit in seamlessly with the newer material, matching its religious militancy and anthemic style. The confrontational nature of the group's message is apparent immediately in the opening track, 'Get Up, Stand Up,' as stirring a song as any that emerged from the American Civil Rights movement a decade before. The Wailers are explicit in their call to violence, a complete reversal from their own 1960s 'Simmer Down' philosophy. Here, on 'Burnin' and Lootin',' they take issue with fellow Jamaican Jimmy Cliff's song of the previous year, 'Many Rivers to Cross,' asking impatiently, 'How many rivers do we have to cross/Before we can talk to the boss?' 'I Shot the Sheriff,' the album's most celebrated song, which became a number one hit in the hands of Eric Clapton in 1974, claims self-defense, admits consequences ('If I am guilty I will pay'), and emphasizes the isolated nature of the killing ('I didn't shoot no deputy'), but its central image is violent. Such songs illuminated the desperation of poor Jamaican life, but they also looked forward to religious salvation, their themes accentuated by the compelling rhythms and the alternating vocals of the three singers. Bob Marley was a first among equals, of course, and after this album his partners, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer, quit the group, which thereafter was renamed Bob Marley and the Wailers.

Released at a time when Reggae was gaining worldwide attention, Exodus perfectly illustrated the political and cultural nature of an art form that was becoming the mouthpiece for both the Rastafarian religion and the struggles of the Jamaican people and it made Bob Marley the undisputed sovereign of the genre. Originally released on Island Records in 1977, Exodus became one of Marley's first albums to receive international recognition thanks to the huge hits "Jammin," "Waiting in Vain" and "One Love/People Get Ready."

Not only did Bob Marley And The Wailers' 1973 album signal reggae’s international breakthrough and the emergence of its patron saint but it remains one of the genre’s finest. Catch A Fire would be Marley’s major label debut and reggae’s first true album, rather than a collection of singles. Passionate, often politically charged, the album includes such classics as “Stir It Up,” “Concrete Jungle” and “Slave Driver.”

Bob Marley's 1974 album Natty Dread is his first without former bandmates Peter Tosh and Bunny Livingston and it captures the reggae legend's transition from a member of the Wailers to auteur, where his singing and writing were now front and center. The Wailers' rhythm section of bassist Aston "Family Man" Barrett and drummer Carlton "Carlie" Barrett remains intact here and Marley adds a female vocal trio and additional instrumentation to flesh out the sound. The album kicks things off with the enduring classics "Lively Up Yourself" and "No Woman No Cry" and is then anchored with a strong set of material that includes "Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)," "Rebel Music (3 O'Clock Roadblock)," "Natty Dread" and "Revolution." Not only is Natty Dread one of Bob Marley's finest albums, it's one of the finest reggae recordings of all time.

When Bob Marley brought the sounds of reggae to a worldwide stage, he did so on a platform of Rastafarian beliefs with songs that addressed social injustice. The Bob Marley & the Wailers compilation, Rebel Music includes tracks drawn from such albums as Natty Dread, Rastaman Vibration and Survival, material that best represents the motives and themes that he stood for. From the overtly religious material like "War/No More Trouble" and "Crazy Baldhead" to songs about injustice "Slave Driver" and poverty "Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)" to the quintessential protest song "Get Up Stand Up," Rebel Music is as consummate a Marley collection as you can get.
