Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Even as greatest hits packages go, Legend is an utter gem. Every song is inspired, in a class of its own, whether the real version of "I Shot the Sheriff", the hymnlike "No Woman, No Cry" or the sheer joy of "Jamming". Even allowing that Marley never wrote any bad material, Legend is still the crème de la crème, the heart and soul of the Jamaican people packed into one five-inch compact disc. He was unique and the message of this record, more than any other, is that he died far too soon. --Chris Nickson

CD Description
Originally released in 1984, 'Legend' is a posthumous retrospective album containing some of the most popular songs from one of reggae's most transcendent and iconic figures. Includes ten top thirty hits such as 'No Woman No Cry', 'BuffaloSoldier', 'One Love/People Get Ready' and 'Jamming', which later went on to inspire Stevie Wonder's 'Masterblaster (Jammin')'. This remastered edition includes and extended version of 'Punk Reggae Party' as a bonus track.

5.0 out of 5 stars Legend, 5 Nov 2006
By Spider Monkey (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
The title of this album says it all. This is such a great collection of songs I don't know where to start. If you're new to Marley then you can't do better than this album, and if you're already a fan then this a great collection of his stuff in one place. Worth it for 'No woman no cry' alone! Brilliant summer music, or any time of the year it's that good!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lively Up Your Music Collection, 17 Mar 2006
There are a handful of albums that I see in just about every house that I visit. Bob Marley-Legend is one of them. Everyone seems to love his songs and I think the main reason is their simplicity. Marley seems to be able to strip music to it's simplest form and deliver messages so relevant but without the pretentiousness that most artist impose.

Think of Reggae and Bob Marley immediately comes to mind. He has put this genre on the map and made it his own. He has mastered the genre to make the most wonderful and chilled out songs ever recorded. Played from beginning to end, this collection will take away all your worries and chill your soul. A great summer's day album to play whilst relaxing in your yard and equally good music to play in the background of a nice social gathering. One time I was in a chillout bar and they had the whole album on in the background and not one tune seemed out of place, in fact it helped tremendously with the atmosphere.

Music doesn't get more honest than this. Simplicity and beauty with a strong thread of genius interwoven throughout. this collection of songs shows clearly why Bob Marley is heralded in such high regard by millions of people worldwide. He touches everyone who hears his music, which is just about the full population of the planet.

One of the greatest collections of an artist's work and rightfully titled. Bob Marley was, and still is, a legend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, 19 Aug 2002
Bob Marley and the Wailers rule the world of reggae music. It's as simple as that. This album collects their finest work, both studio and live recordings, and puts them on one brilliant CD. If you think you have any taste in good music, you'll listen to this at least once in your life, and probably many more. A classic record, you won't find better in the genre than Legend. BUY IT NOW! Cool stuff.
