Description:

Bob Marley's second live album, 1978's Babylon by Bus, had to be pretty damned good to match the incandescence of 1975's Live!. But with glorious performances on songs like "Punky Reggae Party," "Jamming," and "Is This Love?" Bob Marley and the Wailers came close to equaling Live!. Maybe there wasn't quite the same amount of inspiration, but the Wailers had matured into a tight unit, and Marley was a charismatic performer, as this set captured only too well. And with Marley still at the height of his writing powers, there definitely wasn't a dud song in the bunch. Not so much bus travel as limousine listening, this specially remastered edition makes the glory of the original release even clearer. --Chris Nickson

5Excellent Quality. It's Like Your in the Audience!  Sep 11, 2009
Talk about the perfect music to play at a party, especially a summer/early fall rooftop party. I've been jammin' to this CD for the last couple of days and I can't get enough. The audio quality is so good, you feel as if you're in the audience. I have to say that I was impressed. My favorite songs are Exodus, Concrete Jungle, and Stir it Up. You won't be dissappointed. Buy the CD and fall in love with it, I did.

This LP takes me back to my college days in the late 70s early 80s when Bob ruled the airwaves. This is the best live Marley recording of all. Download it now !

5Babylon By Bus Purchase Review  Jan 07, 2009
Am completely happy with purchase, love the CD, and shipping time was great. Thank you!

5Everything is better by "Bus"  Aug 26, 2008
Bob Marley and I go way back, to the early 80s to be exact. I owned "Bus" first as a double album, then replaced them with a CD as one era was ending and another began. NOW, my first CD wore out and I had to - once again - find a replacement. You know what? it just keeps getting better and better. Call it maturity, call it leaps in technology, I love this collection of live songs, no matter the format.

5Can't believe I did not buy this earlier!  Jun 11, 2008
It is true as most reviewers say: This is Marley at his best. I already owned for over 10 years Burning, Catch a fire, Exodus, and those earlier versions albums, you know: Duppy conquerer, Kaya and such. The first time I heard this album I wanted to kill myself for not listening to it earlier. I have Black Uhuru's live in 84, Burning Spear's Garvey and his ghost, some Steel Pulse, Peter Broggs and so many other Rootz Reggea artists and I'll tell you this album is not only the best Reggea album I have ever listened to (Yes, I've heard Live), but probably the best Live album by any artist I have ever heard. Just the begining of it it's awsome, he gives his praises to Jah and BOOM! Rastaman Vibration, no intro no nothing, he gives the crowd what they went there for: Mad live Reggea tracks to dance all night. Kind of like The song remains the same from Zeppelin: All right let's go!
