1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly compiled, August 14, 2007

This review is from: Best of Bob Marley (Audio CD)

This is one of a multitude of semi-legal reissues of the Wailers early recordings, of which this is one of the worst. The original recordings from this pre-Island Records period are some of the best of Marley's career, but you would never know it from listening to them here. This 3 disc set could easily have fit onto 2 discs (each disc here is about 30 minutes), there are no track notes to explain dates or recording info, and some tracks are mislabeled and repeated. Additionally, the sound quality is terrible with a swishy, underwater sound on all tracks. The first disc of the "Songs of Freedom" box presents some of this same material in much, much better quality.

Don't buy this.

Sound quality is probably the worst I have ever heard on a mass marketed CD...
