There's really not much to be said about this album - it's all been here before.
It's really quite simple. You have to ask yourself one question. Do I like Bob Marley? If you answer yes then this album will be perfect for you, answer no then I wouldn't bother.
This is essentially a greatest hits album, and provides just that - some of Marley's finest creations on this 20-track CD, complete with his backing band The Wailers. The only new addition is the track "Slogans" which was previously unreleased - and it's damn good too! Amazing lyrics throughout all tracks help provide a great listening experience!
If you're unsure about the whole Reggae genre of music then this would be a great CD to test out whether or not this is your kind of thing. If you don't like this then you probably won't like any Reggae.
An excellent album, highly recommended. And at only £8.99 from Play.com I think that's an absolute bargain!

Advantages: Will cheer you up in times of need Disadvantages: None whatsoever!!!!!
I truly enjoyed this album, and always have it on repeat.
It features all the well known Marley hits like; No woman no cry, I shot the sheriff, jammin,one love, exodus, could you be loved, and 3 little birds.
Although it features many hits, there are also one or too missing such as 'Small axe' and 'sun is shining,' but all in all it is truly an album you must have in your collection!!!!
When ever I am feeling down this album always cheers me up! ...
