It's all good. The mention of ol' school and Bob Marley tells me that you prefer the roots/rasta aspect of reggae. In retrospect, Bob Marley introduced many of us to Reggae Music because of his worldly reach. To many, he was the face of Reggae Music. I worked at a music store many moons ago near a cruise ship dock. Whenever tourists would come into the shop, they would ALWAYS ask about Bob Marley before leaving. And by that time, Bob was already dead (rest his soul) - and there was many other great reggae artists and bands out there. Another popular and powerful artist is Bunny Wailer; one of the original wailers. Soul Rebel is one of my favorite tracks! You can give him a listen.

Good call, I like that track.
Yeah, I like the mellow stuff. I don't even care much for "Get up, Stand up" by Marley. I prefer tracks like "Jammin" and "So much Trouble...". |
Yeah man; glad you liked it! Music like that never disappoints!

The thing about Sublime covers too is that they always a really unique flair to them. Just listen to We're Only Gonna Die For Our Own Arrogance. Completely different than Bad Religions version. |
I alway appreciated Sublime's originals. I also don't remember ever hearing vocals like that before them.

Have you heard his latest song? It's called, Dem Lucky. Check it out on Youtube. I kind of sounds old school to me. I like it. I like the song he did with Stephen and Damien Marley, Jah Army. Wanna Be Loved, was the first time I had ever heard of Buju Banton. He's also done some songs with Beres Hammond. I particularly like, Pull Up. Although he is very popular in JA and likely known to people into reggae, more so dancehall music, I wouldn't say he's as well known as Bob Marley. I don't think I've ever met anyone who hasn't heard of Bob Marley.

"Wanna be loved" is one of my favorites!!!
