Remembering Bob Marley...





30 years ago today, Nesta Robert "Bob" Marley (my boyfriend/husband/shawty in another life) passed away. Some found/find his death to be mysterious and "too convenient."

Whatever the case may be, I still listen to his music on a regular basis. I love all of his songs, even the stuff from the very beginning of his career.

Here are my favorites:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlk9Sj4Ns2k
"Stir It Up" (boomchickawowow!!!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64QkD5pBWWE
"No Woman No Cry"

What say you, GCers?






(And Marley's fine self made some fine sons. )

A fun game for procrastination would be to use nothing but Bob Marley lyrics and song titles in normal conversations.

And for those who didn't notice, I put "Three Little Birds" with "Sun is Shining."

Dynamic, captivating, charismatic, magical. Just as relevant today as it was then.

ETA: fixed the link, it should work now.

Awesome link.

Strongly political concert with great performances. I also love to see a fine man dance (who knows how to dance). It does something to me.

I listened to the Rastaman Vibrations album over and over again while working on my senior thesis. The other KDs in the house were probably ready to kill me, but I got an A. Thanks, Bob!

Among all the Bob songs today, here's another song worth a listen:

("Bob Lives On" by Horace Andy)

Me too.

And I wore out my Rastaman Vibration LP. Literally wore it out. Think I drove my neighbors stark raving mad. "Jah love, Jah love, protect us"; those were some fine moments in my living room, dancing to that.
