Bob Marley - Legend [Deluxe Edition]

The classic 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 Marley's music was as important as his message, and that's captured particularly well here.

For many fans, Legend is the first point of entry to Bob Marley's oeuvre, introducing them to Marley's most important singles from the late 1970s. The deluxe edition hasn't changed that, though it adds a second disc of remixes that were mostly done in the 1980s. If hearing just one version of "Three Little Birds" isn't enough for you, pick this up.
