Legend (Deluxe Edition)
Even as greatest hits packages go, this is an utter gem. Every song is inspired and in a class of its own, whether it's the real version of "I Shot the Sheriff," the hymnlike "No Woman, No Cry," or the sheer joy of "Jamming." Even allowing thatMarleynever wrote any bad material,Legendis still the crème de la crème--the heart and soul of the Jamaican people packed into one 5-inch compact disc. Marley was unique, and the message of this record, more than any other, is that he died far too soon.
