Album Notes
Bob Marley & the Wailers: Peter Tosh (vocals, guitar, piano, organ); Bob Marley (vocals, guitar, percussion); Bunny Livingston (vocals, congas, bongos); Earl "Chinna" Smith (guitar, percussion); Junior Marvin (guitar, background vocals); Donald Kinsey, Al Anderson (guitar); Bernard Touter Harvey (piano, organ); Tyrone Downie (keyboards, bass guitar, percussion, background vocals); Earl Lindo (keyboards, percussion, background vocals); Aston Barrett (bass guitar, percussion); Carlton "Carly" Barrett (drums, percussion); Joe Higgs (percussion, background vocals); Alvin "Seeco" Patterson (percussion); Judy Mowatt, Marcia Griffiths, Rita Marley (background vocals).Despite the tidal wave of Bob Marley compilations flooding the stores year after year, it always seems unlikely that anything will supplant the revered LEGEND, an excellent, if not comprehensive, Marley sampler. However, Universal's GOLD series has put together this stunning, two-disc collection that gives LEGEND a serious run for its money. GOLD has 34 songs to LEGEND's 16, represents all phases of Marley's career, and is lovingly sequenced and packaged (with wonderful photos and an overview of the artist's studio output).In addition to all of the most essential and recognized tracks--"Stir It Up," "I Shot the Sheriff," "One Love/People Get Ready," and "No Woman No Cry," among them--GOLD doesn't skimp on lesser-known Marley classics. The rock-inspired "Concrete Jungle," the dreamy "Natural Mystic," and the political lament "So Much Trouble in the World" are among the gems sprinkled here. Selections from Marley's superb live albums and his often-overlooked mid-period output (RASTAMAN VIBRATION and KAYA) are here, fleshing out the retrospective. Much has been said about Marley's status as a poet, musical genius, and prophet. GOLD may be the most definitive proof of those claims available.

Please note I use eBay's "pre-filled listing" information because I believe using it is necessary for success on eBay at this time.   However, at times eBay's "pre-filled information" is wrong.   I will not guarantee the accuracy of what eBay writes.   I take photos of the front booklet, CD and back page.  If you have any questions please email me.

All of my CD's are 100% original. I do not sell CD-R or fake CD's.   Many of the CD’s are club editions, please look at the pictures.  I also do not sell Chinese or Russian knockoffs.  The pictures are of the actual CD and the CD is available.    

Many of the CD's were purchased over the years from used CD stores which may have polished or buffed the CD's to look like new.  For most of them I am unable to tell which ones have been polished as they look like new to me.

All CD’s come in a plastic jewel case that was not broken or cracked when sent to you.  I take care and put it between cardboard and in a bubble envelope.  However, depending on the postal worker, jewel cases can get broken.   They are cheap to replace, about 40 cents each.  If your CD jewel case arrives broken please do not hold it against me.   Thank you.

I strive to achieve outstanding service.   I am not a store or a drop shipper, just a music lover.  Each CD was photographed and examined by me personally.
