Alright...I'm just trying to find out who's a real mad collector. And what's your favorite marley jam/moment. Thanks.

Only one On top of that it's a greatest hits I know my favorite doesn't even count now, lol, but it's "Is This Love"...

0.

All of the Island ones, including the 2CD deluxe versions of Catch A Fire, Exodus and Rastaman Vibration. I have a 2CD Trojan set to cover the non-Island years which does a good enough job I think...

None.

I have 7.

I've got the "Legends" comp; does that count???

Me too!
I had the Box Set, but gave it to my friend. She's a much bigger fan than I am. Obviously. Too bad I didn't know about eBay back then! Oh Well.

8-10 also Books on Him.Big Fan of the Man.

not as many as i should, i had a roomate 4 about seven years who had about 15 releases by him,dig this i turned him on to marley first!! Since i've only picked up two natty dread and africa unite, hypocrites is you of my favs!!

Compilations suck . Yes they do.

none.

15 or so. i am stunned that so many folks posting here are posting that they have 0 or just one greatest hits disc. i'm really surprised.

I just went through my music.

I have 7 Marley discs.

Love the stuff.

got tons of it, from the very beginning with Coxson Dodd("simmer down") and the Lee Perry era to the island stuff.
anyone with taste should own the exodus deluxe edition cd.

That's actually my 7th purchase. It's just so damn pure...

One thing for all of you who don't have a clue about Bob DO NOT BUY THE GREATEST HITS CD!! POOR REPRESENTATION, GET NATTY DREAD HIS FIRST MAJOR RELEASE THEN GO FROM THERE

Catch A Fire and Burnin' weren't major releases?

Essence said:

I wasn't talking about those i shoulda made it clear donot buy legend that seems to b the 1 everyone has, well anyways any bob is good bob i guess i'm just predjudice against that one!!

richb8 said:

I'm not fond of Legend either, as it cannot sum up his entire career in an hour or so. And I don't like it when the original tracklist/order (as INTENDED by the artist) is ignored and songs from completely different backgrounds are mixed together (like on "The very best of Prince"...)

Just my personal opinion of course

i just don't like Reggae full stop, doesn't mean i don't respect or recognise what Bob contributed.

richb8 said:

I agree it's just you said Natty Dread was his FIRST major release, when Catch A Fire and Burnin pre-dated it on Island and in terms of his career I'd advise chronoloical order as with any legend.

Essence said:

My fault i thought natty dread was first

richb8 said:

Nah man Catch A Fire was the Island debut, check the 2CD deluxe version with it's original pre-over dub version as Bob delivered it to Chris Blackwell.

Songs of Freedom, perhaps the best box set out there.

if yall got the money you should run out and buy the story of jamacian music box set $50 it's a excellent represenation of reggae music and traces the music prebob and postbob there's some amazing stuff on there buy some obsure artist who's fame never made it off the island

7 albums and the "Songs of Freedom" 4 disc box set.

I'm behind on collecting the classic beauties of real song and music, but a lot of love and admiration from the heart for Bob Marley...

i've got 3 Love Bob.

I bought Natty Dread on vinyl when it was first released & then again years later on cd.
Does that count as two?
