Chant Down Babylon

I heard this album while on a catamaran in the Virgin Islands and loved it so much I just had to purchase it. Whenver I hear it, it takes me back to the Caribbean, with remixes of Bob's classics. It's a great album.

While I understand the dismay of some to remixing any of Bob's songs, I think this album is so beautifully done that it transcends most objections. Any work that brings Bob's timeless music to a new generation is definitely a good thing, and I'm not a rap fan. My two favorites here are Turn Your LIghts Down Low, and Johnny Was, two of the best songs ever written, in my opinion. I think this album is a great introduction, and if you're already a Bob Marley fan (and who isn't?) be sure to check out the original tracks also. Just a word of warning, though...his music is addictive, I have some on pretty much all the time.

They forgot my order, I had to shoot them an e-mail. The guy apologized, and my order was quickly sent after that. Ordered on July 23, recieved August 22. Luckily, Bob Marley is worth waiting a year for.

my favorite album is Legend, but i enjoy this one as well. there will never be another Bob Marley, but i feel this was a great effort by everyone involved to bring a new sound to his music.

My favorite track on this album is tack 11, which is a remix of Survival that stays very true to the original song. It uses Bob Marley's complete lyrics and does not have any guest artists... the only thing they changed was the timing and the beat... it sounds dope. I recommend for those who liked the original Survival album by Bob Marley & The Wailers.

Survival was my first & favorite Bob Marley & the Wailers album. Here are all the tracks on that album, in case you didnt know how good the songs are:

So Much Trouble in the World, Zimbabwe, Top Rankin', Babylon System, Survival, Africa Unite, One Drop, Ride Natty Ride, Ambush in the Night, and Wake Up and Live.
