Buffalo Soldier - Marley
Exodus - Marley
Actually, almost anything by Marley.

Buju and his ilk disturb me for their anti-gay lyrics...

I believe the "Troll" thread is a few blocks down the road...

Granted, songs like Boom Bye Bye aren't the friendliest, but he does have a lot of talent and some great songs.

I pretty like anything produced by Lee 'Scratch' Perry during the 60s and 70s. He defined Reggae.

I agree...he has killer chops. *shrugs*

Anyone know if Ziggy Marley is still recording?
