I always liked Marley, and me being just a hip white boy, he led the to The Harder They Come soundtrack.  I prefer Toots, et. al., but I always think about Marley as being a sort of gateway drug into that, which is not a bad thing.

I'm not a fan of Reggae (Not that I don't find it pleasant  once in a while), but the guy was special, he had something that differences the good musician from the real icon.
 
I own one of his best of compliations and listen it when in mood.

When you want that poo smell for your hair but can't afford real poo, get sham poo, smells just like it.

LOL My son had Dreads for years, I have to confess I did not get too close. I will stick with being just a Baldhead listening to my mouldy Bob Marley albums and any other 70's reggae Tongue

But so soft.  I never did the conditioning, but it's just in my house now so I tried it one day.....Oh man...as long s it's free I'll be using it.  My hair is just so comfortable to lay with now.
Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?

Stock answer: I'm inclined to say that Marley is overrated by some and underrated by others in various ways.
