Bob Marley and the Wailers, 1971. Trojan.
Yet another obscure compilation.
From the Dark Ages of Reggae, when identity, copyright, ownership, etc. was a little obscure.
This 2003 re-release includes bonus dub versions from The Upsetters, and interesting liner notes.
Essential?
Not really - most of the stuff you hear here can be found on the Lee Scratch Perry JAD albums (prev rev), and on the re-released Burnin' and Catch a Fire.
I like the set, but I don't deny I'm a Marley completist...
And hearing/feeling the drum and bass roll over me at virtually any time is one of life's most soothing and positive experiences.
As to the title? - your guess is as good as mine.
7/10.
