One of the greats died 40 years ago today - Bob Marley, who was only 36. 
Any favourite songs or memories from the Masterblaster ? Or any other great reggae artists who deserve a hat tip ? |

"Turn your lights down low
Thats a seriously seductive song ! I love the backing vocals too, by Rita Marley, Marcia Griffiths and Judy Mowatt."
I prefer the version featuring Lauren Hill as it’s even sexier  |

There's a great album out there called Disco reggae....Great for summer barbies and Rosemary Martins version of Love to love you baby is a top tune. |

"Three little birds for me x"
Rise up this morning
Smiled with the rising sun
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singing sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true
Saying
This is my message to you-ou-ou |

One of the best nights of our life was going to the natural Mystic gig in London where we got to enjoy Ziggy Marley, Rita & the IThrees and the Wailers inc Bunny. They were supported by an absolute legend *hat tip’d* Jimmy Cliff
such a great night. Ziggy looked and sang uncannily like his dad. |

There and to the left a bit |
Too many to mention from Bob...many of them already listed but personal favourites would have to be Could You Be Loved and No Woman No Cry...but I Shot The Sherriff and Satisfy My Soul are two not mentioned so far worthy of a mention....and Redemption Song too
From reggae it's but a short hop, skank and a moonstomp to ska...
Desmond Dekker
Prince Buster
Toots & The Maytals
The Skatalites
The Pioneers
....and many more are on my regularly played artists...
..then to come more up to date the likes of The Simmertones, The Bluebeaters and Lee Thompson's Ska Orchestra are keeping the sound alive |

Several of his in my playlist. Annie Lennox did a beautiful cover version of one of my favourite
Waiting In Vain
From the very first time I placed my eyes on you, girl
My heart says follow through
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line…….
It's your love that I'm waiting on
It's my love that you're running from  |

Top Ranking - A short simple song but always got to me, made me question who's pulling the strings and why. Kind of always troubled me a bit that we share a common origin yet we have grown so divided by man made borders and being told we are all so different from each other (which has then become a self fulfilling prophesy).
To be fair I listen to the alban Survival a lot in my youth and it made me ask a few questions and stick my head back into the history books.
