Good, But Left Out Important Songs. Jun 24, 2006 Good, (well all Bob Marley is good) but I still have that feeling from what I got 5 years ago when it was released that they left out some very important songs, yes I am delighted that they have put "So Much Trouble In The World" on it as it is a flawless song, but reasons why they have left out "Satisfy My Soul" and the oringinal "Redemption Song", still leave me saying why.
I do like how they have put it in year order, and have included a song off each album, apart from Babylon By Bus, well they just had to put on "No Woman No Cry" of Live, so I will let them off.
"Roots Rock Reggae", is another great song deserving a place on this album, but maybe "War" or "Positive Vibration" to replace that, or to add on to it.
"Coming In From The Cold" deserves every right to be on Legend and this, it is just an amazing song and has had not enough credit for it.
Otherwise that, it is a strong album, and worth the money.
A good purchase.

Forget "Legend" this is the Best Bob Marley Compilation that's Out There! Dec 31, 2005 For many years, "Legend" was the only truly great compilation of this man's life's work but if you don't already have that album or if you are new to Bob Marley and want to find out what all the fuss is about, this hard-to-find version is really the best that there is. 20 great track selections and one track, the last one, that's not even on any other Marley album and most importantly of all, the sound quality is brilliant! Too many albums use the "remastered" claim too easily and sometimes even falsely to get you to "upgrade" from the album you already have but this is not one of them as this disc has been remastered to perfection. If you are not too wild about "live" performances just like me, then don't worry too much about the more expensive 2-disc version as this great one-disc version will more than suffice. Great track selections, great sound quality, great value for money, this is THE Bob Marley one-disc compilation album to get. Highly recommended!

Is this a bootleg? Jun 27, 2005 Okay, here is the major problem with this release: it is not a TuffGong/Island release. The Marley family has struggled with this reality for a long time. Because Bob's music has become so widespread and lacks the legal protections that American and European recording artists have enjoyed for decades, his recordings have gone onto the cheap market (flea markets, push carts, gas stations, etc-and now Amazon). Buying One Love only serves to strengthen these sleazy record companies and hurts reggae artists and the Jamaican economy. Look closely at the albums before you buy them. Find out what label has produced them and try to stick with TuffGong when possible.
