The Ghost Of Bob Marley

Advantages: Old favourites remixed as "urban duets"
Disadvantages: Not for the purists; this isn't real reggae

...dominate throughout 4. Rastaman Chant (Featuring Busta Rhymes) The first track on the album that retains a bit of the original's feel. There's no hip hop beats, just a beautiful plucked guitar and a reggae riddim married to Marley's vocals that for once do not seem to be added to the track as an afterthought. BUT! Two minutes in that all changes. Busta Rhymes makes a couple of half-hearted, two-line raps and disappears only to return complete with ...
...Original: 4/5 Remix: 2/5 TAP: Busta's nonsense "chatting" on three minutes: "when Babylon farl" 5. Guiltiness (Featuring The Lost Boyz) Never heard of the Lost Boyz, however this little known quantity show surprising respect and restraint.

This album has helped me through the rough times!

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! ...
