For me, Marley is not an immediate go to - I much prefer the heavy dub of Scratch Perry, King Tubby, et al; the early work coming out of Studio One; & the bands that I grew up with in my late teens in the UK - Steel Pulse, Misty in Roots, Culture, Aswad... But hearing Bob in his prime, playing to audiences that really *got* his music, is special.
BTW - talking of Aswad, very sad to learn of the passing of Angus (Drummie Zeb) Gaye, one of the finest drummers in any form of music, & blessed with the sweetest voice.
