Chant Down Babylon (1983) - Bob Marley & The Wailers this interesting album of unreleased tracks they were working on, probably in a hypothetical ranking of their albums it would be in last place, but the fact that its 'position' is not so obvious speaks volumes about the value of the pieces contained.

Coming In From The Cold (1991) - Bob Marley & The Wailers I read somewhere that this opening piece is one of two that were added only after the album seemed to be completed: a track that opens an album which, along with Survival and Exodus, I consider to be among the best of the post-Natty Dread phase. Ah, the second piece to be added only after the album seemed to be completed is Redemption Song.

Bob Marley & The Wailers Top Rankin' 'They don't want to see us unite, All they want us to do is keep on fussing and fighting, They don't want to see us live together, all they want us to do is keep on killing one another'

So Much Trouble In The World (1979) - Bob Marley & The Wailers and here it is, what I consider their pinnacle. A perfect album in every respect: compositional level, themes, lyrics. A musical, political, cultural, revolutionary manifesto. A consciousness that starts in Africa to speak to the whole world. There isn't a single moment here that isn't absolutely essential and of the highest quality. One of those albums that you put on and, no matter what you’re doing, you can’t help but stop and listen attentively. And then the cover: if the concept of a flag has any meaning, this is the only type of flag that I personally appreciate: the union of all.

Punky Reggae Party (1978) - Bob Marley & The Wailers I consider the first live performance to be an integral part of their early phase. Babylon by Bus is their 'anthological' and celebratory live album, even though, of course, it lacks tracks from the two fundamental studio albums that followed. This piece documents the meeting of punk and reggae that the Clash had introduced through their openness to 'other' sounds beyond the overly narrow musical trajectories of raw punk, demonstrating how punk was more of an attitude than a musical genre.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen - Stories from England [B-Sides Collection] The cover seems to even depict the 'Animals' factory of Pink Floyd: a coincidence?

Easy Skanking (1978) - Bob Marley & The Wailers well, a delightful opening for an album that might be a bit underrated especially for being 'squashed' between two huge periods.

Kaya (1978) - Bob Marley & The Wailers their journey from Catch a Fire to Exodus has made them a universal revolutionary symbol. The next album, in terms of themes, is certainly more laid-back, but still carries an exceptionally high level of inspiration in its composition. It’s a pause, in a way, before the two subsequent masterpieces: with Survival in particular being my absolute favorite album of theirs.

Bob Marley & the Wailers -- Three Little Birds personally, when I think of reggae, this piece always comes to my mind first.

Exodus (1977) - Bob Marley & The Wailers one of the key albums, I would even say objectively. The first side is something that doesn't let up in its intensity and overwhelming nature. The closing features two tracks that are probably among the most famous, but also significant, in all of reggae. In between, there are three other incredible tracks. And then the title track: never before has there been a reggae piece of almost 8 minutes. It will also become a classic.
