The Wailers recording sessions, concerts, and life at 56 Hope Road (Marley's residence) are all part of a sensitive, authoritative, and authentic look at the king of a musical movement that swept out of Jamaica and into Western and Third World Countries alike. <P>Today the legend of Bob Marley continues to grow with legions of fans, many of whom weren't even born when Marley died. This "larger than life" figure continues to affect music, since so much of what is current leads back to roads he paved. The members of his band (among them Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Aston "Family Man" Barrett) and his family (including Rita and Ziggy Marley) continue to dominate the reggae and pop music of today. The effect this music has had on the rest of the world, not only in reggae but in pop, ska, punk, world beat, dancehall, rap, hi hop, folk, and almost every genre of popular music imaginable cannot be measured. 352278 1983 Bob Marley total:12|5:7|4:1|3:3|2:1|1:0| 12 50 20 2 3 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 09 13:55:18 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 09 13:56:19 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Fri Mar 16 20:32:50 -0700 2007 Fri Mar 16 20:50:01 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Tue Dec 01 16:24:07 -0800 2009 Tue Dec 01 16:24:07 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Thu Jul 23 11:57:54 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 23 11:57:54 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Jul 14 11:04:07 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 14 11:04:07 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jun 18 18:50:41 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 18 18:50:41 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 20 07:13:04 -0700 2009 Wed May 20 07:13:04 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sat Mar 28 13:07:24 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 28 13:07:24 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Mon Feb 09 14:05:02 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 09 14:05:02 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Jan 20 10:48:05 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 20 10:48:05 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sun Jan 18 06:00:01 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 18 06:00:01 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Tue Dec 09 07:25:18 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 09 07:25:18 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Wed Dec 03 16:45:44 -0800 2008 Wed Dec 03 16:45:52 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Mon Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2001 Thu Oct 09 15:21:36 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 09 15:21:48 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Sep 04 20:53:37 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 04 20:53:37 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Sep 04 16:14:30 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 04 16:14:30 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Aug 14 20:33:41 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 14 20:33:41 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1995 Mon May 05 10:31:43 -0700 2008 Mon May 05 10:32:10 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Apr 13 12:27:43 -0700 2008 Sun Apr 13 12:27:48 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Apr 29 12:22:57 -0700 2007 Sun Apr 29 12:22:59 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=362183
