Cloaking a command and a dismissal in an icon of peace is disingenuous at best, but entirely consistent with the actions of the majority of practitioners I've encountered. Apart from Buddhism, is there a doctrine that doesn't hold those outside of its tenants to be cursed or inferior? Lennon was onto something regarding the religion issue.

We brought the KTEL CD "TV Tunes" with us on our trip to Jamaica - a long time ago. The rastas seemed to like the Beverley Hillbilly's theme the best.

By chance I had a Desmond Dekker CD in the player this morning. This is an interesting juxtaposition. I was never much of a Marley fan, but that's because he was "ruined" for me by a smokehead roomie who would listen to nothing else.

ok song but a long way from my fav Bob song
cover reminded me though...(natty dread).  I was always impressed by the guy in "Bad Brains" because his dread had evolved into just three locks.  Then I saw this dude in USVI who only had two...one sort of on the front of his head and one on the back and both down below his knees.  I haven't found the guy yet with only one yet but when I do I will give him the prize.

@papernapkin: In this case it's more likely a matter of politics and spirtuality than "taste". I happen to disagree with you about Marley being over-rated and I do like most of his work in terms of composition, rhythm, melody, and harmony...plus it just feels good. But the fact is I enjoy such a wide range of wildly different musical styles that I would be just as enthusiastic about the same ideas, sentiments, etc being expressed in a different genre. So...as for people who don't like reggae, hopefully they can still appreciate the substantive content of Marley's work which transcends the reggae genre. If not...well then it's not a matter of taste at all.

(That said, I think your rebuke of fortyonejb was not entirely inappropriate; his lashing out at the "ignorance" of others doesn't exactly communicate the spirit Marley served and conveyed...rather the opposite actually. I never did understand agro reggae dudes."One love, one heart", remember?)

good song, love Marley's music, am sure I can't appreciate his cry for social justice as never been to his land, but guess their fight is against THE MAN, the system in their country. Sucko Barfo. I do wish that RP would play, obtain some of his more classic stuff, No Woman No Cry, So Ja Sef, etc. off an old album I bought in 1975, I think it's the best album he ever released. So Much Trouble in the World is just getting so boring, relentless Marley song.

@fortyonejb: Talk about not understanding. Know that people's tastes vary. Music is visceral more than anything else. You shouldn't have to be a music scholar to 'understand' it. I think Bob's over-rated.

I have to admit to being somewhat perplexed by the ongoing "reggae sucks ... no it doesn't ... yes it does" sparring, as I tend for the most part to make my decisions on a track by track basis according to each artist's performance, rather than by genre.

Each to his own.

Not exactly sure what one has to do with the other. Having said that, I've never really got the whole "reggae" thing. I actually saw Marley live way back when and (forgive me for the blasphemy) walked out bored out of my mind after about 30 minutes.
