Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of Bob Marley
(2007)

by
Various Artists
There's little doubt that these glockenspiel and vibraphone-laced renditions of Bob Marley songs are soothing, sounding as if Marley's songbook were being played by a giant music box with just the slightest trace of Jamaican rhythm left intact. It's disconcerting to hear street anthems like "Get Up, Stand Up," outlaw sagas like "I Shot the Sheriff ...

Chant Down Babylon

by
Bob Marley
Sometime during the '90s, overdubbing classic recordings with new instruments and vocals became an accepted practice, since the intent was to introduce legendary artists to a contemporary audience. Evidently, these good intentions made these albums better than, say, overdubbing strings on Hank Williams' spare recordings after his death, since that ...

Stir It Up: The Music of Bob Marley
(1999)
more music like this
by
Monty Alexander
How do you reconcile a harmonically basic, rhythmically upside-down idiom like Bob Marley's reggae with the bop-derived environment in which pianist Monty Alexander usually works? Indeed, Alexander prefers not to choose, gambling audaciously by combining a six-piece Jamaican reggae rhythm section, the Gumption Band, with a three-piece jazz rhythm ...

Grover Washington, Jr.
Anyone who had seen Grover Washington, Jr. live could attest to the fact that whether he was playing electric jazz-funk or going acoustic on Billy Strayhorn's music, the Philly resident was a masterful saxman with as much technique as soul and charisma. However, the distinctive saxman's studio recordings (which range from outstanding to watered ...

Various Artists
It is impossible to underestimate Bob Marley's impact on Jamaican music, where his influence, image, and social stance are pervasive. As charismatic as he was, Marley also had an ace in the hole: he wrote great songs with easy, fluid melodies and more than enough substance to make them timeless. This three-disc, 50-song set of various Jamaican ...

by
Various Artists
Some albums just are what they are, and little more should be expected of them. This one is exactly what it says it is, a smooth sax tribute to Bob Marley. The work of Minneapolis producer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist Mark Arneson, it has a gentle lilt and bounce to it, and while it won't -- and shouldn't -- replace Legend in anyone's ...
