Bob Marley

The Complete Wailers 1967-1972

Mellow rhythms and pacifist rhymes come rolling from the voice of the legend's formative years. Marley is mixing with women's voices, echoing and harmonizing, "moving and grooving," with serenity in several tunes. The faster music and louder voice of Marley is substituted with romantic sounds and very tranquil moods. Experimental scales and variations prove Marley's command of the music realm. Even some instrumentals similar to Creedence Clearwater slide through in "Black Progress."

The Complete Wailers 1967-1972, Part 1 contains 28 previously-unreleased songs from Bob Marley. "Selassie Is the Chapel," "Black Progress" and "Give Me a Ticket" are songs previously unreleased outside Jamaica. The complete set of 47 tracks is divided into three parts, traveling from Rock to Rock to Best of the Wailers. Although it may be quite expensive, ask your floor to buy you one big gift, because this is a compilation of the greatest of Marley.
