summer sounds

Well it's officially summer today and that means it's the season for all those great summer sounding tunes. Next on the review, as per request from one of my biggest fans Staci, is Bob Marley. His music takes me away to a wonderfully relaxing place where I'm always in a hammock. Reggae in general incapsulates summer, but the music of Marley takes the cake. Marley died nearly thirty years ago, but remains the most widely known and revered performer of reggae music, and is credited for helping spread Jamaican music to the worldwide audience. His compilation album, Legend, released in 1984, three years after his death, is the best-selling reggae album ever (10 times platinum), with sales of more than 12 million copies.
