Amazon.co.uk Review
Bob Marley's second live album, Babylon By Bus, from 1978, had to be pretty damned good to match the incandescence of 1975's Live!. But with glorious performances on songs like "Punky Reggae Party", "Is This Love?" and "Jamming", they came close to equalling it. Maybe there wasn't quite the same amount of inspiration, but the Wailers had matured into a tight unit with Marley the charismatic leader, as this set shows well. And with Marley still at the height of his writing powers, there wasn't a dud song in the bunch. Not so much bus travel as limousine listening. This specially remastered edition makes the glory of the original release even clearer. --Chris Nickson

From the opening "Greetins in the name of"..lead into Positive Vibration through to infectious Jammin', this CD makes up for all those who never got the chance to see him live. Longer than the earlier "Live " this takes in the Clash inspired "Punky Reggae Party" to the challenge to Lively Up Yourself. I defy anyone to listen to this and resist the urge to dance along. Or at least smile. The world was a darker place after he died but his legacy will always live on.
Format:Audio CD
I first listened to this album when I was a kid, curtasy of my older sisters record collection. For me it will always be the definitive 'Live' Bob marly and the Wailers album. When I put the needle on the record and heard the sound of the crowd followed by the rhythmic beat, well I was blown away!

Nearly missed the Bus
Although a long time fan of Bob Marley and The Wailers I had never heard this set until today. I had always thought that "Live" at The Lyceum was the defining live Bob; that may... Read more

Even compared to the 'Lyceum' Album this is amazing
I realise that the Live at the Lyceum album is the pinnacle for many, perhaps even myself. The range of songs available here, though, must be enough to swing you in its favour. Read more

Bus broke down...
Sooooo disappointed with this album, which I bought unheard. The wonderful rhythms of the pre and early Island recordings are totally missing -- the sound it cluttered and rushed. Read more

Not The Best Live Album Nor His Best!
Everything by this album sound rushed. Every song fly on by at the speed of light, and one never get the feeling that this is music to 'relax' by. Read more
