As I rapidly lose followers in all my blogs, I suppose the normal thing to do would be to strive harder for uniqueness and creativity. However, the point of this blog is to do discuss music. I will ask my few followers (you guys are really troopers) to comment more on the different albums to encourage discussion. There, that's my effort. Now to Bob Marley.
I think it is a rule that all high school boys like Bob Marley. I actually think it would impossible for me to enter a high school and not see a Bob Marley tee-shirt. I am pleased to announce that I already have three Marley songs on my iPod. I think all the Shania Twain I have, though, kind of cancels that out.
Anyway, I would recommend this as a great conversation starter with men. Actually, this is an untested theory, but I would imagine it would work well. Anyway, this album is a lot of fun. Bob Marley manages to have interesting political messages and be catchy. Not an easy feat.
RATING: 5/5
Did you and Brie get into a pillow fight over Pet Sounds?
ReplyDeleteCatch a Fire is way cool sounding and has some pretty good songs. I can't wait to play this for someone who thinks they've heard all the good Bob Marley music because they've heard Legend, and that's probably a lot of people. Too bad about the smoking on the cover.
