RumPuncher Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I was going to make a thread before called: Please give it a rest Bob about Bob Marley. Well not the man himself, but the people who keep putting out a greatest hits disc ever 2 years. We get it already I'm so sick of hearing the fratboys playing Bob Marley to death. There's so much good reggae from that era that never gets played. Burning Spear and Third World are far better bands than Bob's backups. Give them a shot, you'll be glad you did. but then... I just heard the Jamrock disc by Damian Marley, and I'm glad that the Marley line is still making tunes. yeah... I've probably been sleeping on this one... but I'm wide awake now. It's so good to hear modern reggae that isn't the usual 'hate-everything' dancehall or the whitewashed Sean Paul bullshit. Yeah.... cop this album.

RumPuncher Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 DAMN.... and there's a cover of Pimpers Paradise. That's my favorite Bob Marley track, and this version holds the torch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumPuncher Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 something worth grabbing..... Steele Pulse (I think they have a greatest hits disc) one of the tightest bands I've heard heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Bruno Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I'm always thinking about names for dogs, for when I decide to drop the money for mine. Well, I can't name it 'Marley', because I'm not a pothead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abracadabra Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 i'm sorry, but no matter how much i try to like reggae, i can't. i just don't get it. reggae just makes me want to kick the shit out of the stereo. even back in the day when my every waking hour was dedicated to taking way too many drugs, i still couldn't put up with it. it's up there with techno in the "if you play this garbage in my presence i am going to murder you in your sleep for having no taste" category.

Quoted post [/b] My high school ceramics class.......oh man, my teacher played a greatest hits Bob CD to death. i cringe whenever I hear "Buffalo Soldier" or "I shot The Sheriff" Those songs are what "Hotel California" is to rock.....played the fuck out. Funny how uptight yuppies'll put on a Bob Marley cd and suddenly think they are so in touch with the black man.

I.C.Shadow Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 It takes fucking forever, maybe its cause im on a mac and dont know how to open ports, but it downloads the album in full, prolly with album art and such. If you're like me and can leave it running for a long time (I'll be at the Bruins Game), bit torrents are well worth it ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
