Legend (Deluxe Edition)

THE Bob Marley "best-of" is back with an extra disc containing 12" single remixes of some of Bob's biggest hits, including an unreleased remix of Lively Up Yourself and a remix of No Woman No Cry ! Also here are such Marley musts as Buffalo Soldier; Get Up Stand Up; Stir It Up; One Love/People Get Ready; I Shot the Sheriff , and Redemption Song 29 crucial cuts!

Even as greatest hits packages go, this is an utter gem. Every song is inspired and in a class of its own, whether it's the real version of "I Shot the Sheriff," the hymnlike "No Woman, No Cry," or the sheer joy of "Jamming." Even allowing that Marley never wrote any bad material, Legend is still the crème de la crème--the heart and soul of the Jamaican people packed into one 5-inch compact disc. Marley was unique, and the message of this record, more than any other, is that he died far too soon.
