Description of Legend:
Even as greatest hits packages go, this is an utter gem. Every song is inspired, in a class of its own, whether the real version of "I Shot the Sheriff," the hymnlike "No Woman, No Cry," or the sheer joy of "Jamming." Even allowing that Marley never wrote any bad material, then Legend is still the crème de la crème, the heart and soul of the Jamaican people packed into one five-inch compact disc. He was unique, and the message of this record, more than any other, is that he died far too soon. --Chris Nickson
Legend Reviews:
Great record, not in great shape 
2009-09-10 - The record itself is amazing and hold many of Bob Marley's fine work, but beware buying this directly form Amazon. They do not take particularly great care when they are packaging the item.
Bob Marley Legend
2009-04-06 - Excellent listen! Bob Marley at his best. Redemption Song speaks to the heart of the listener. The build up to No Woman, No Cry excites the listener, from the roar of the crowd in the background to his perfectly excuted vocals.

2008-06-26 - This is an excellent CD. If you want to start somewhere, this is a good start.
One of the greatest albums ever
2008-04-29 - I received this CD in good condition, as described and fairly quickly. I would buy from this vendor again. Bob Marley ROCKS for ever.

2008-03-30 - Bob Marley & The Wailers-Legend *****
Well when Bob Marley & The Wailers' albums are placed up against other albums from their time, or genre, or period for that matter, they seem to be better, this greatest hits collection is the same but only up against other hit collections.
It shows all the things that The Wailers did in their short time with Marley to bring Reggae to the masses. This really instilled reggae in America. The English always knew about it but it wasn't until songs like 'I Shot The Sheriff' 'Waiting In Vain' and the epic 'Exodus' that reggae became recognized as a true musical form.
Singing songs of Praise, songs of change, of acceptance, of the downtrodden, of love and friendship, and of faith, Marley was true, honest, and more importantly rare, and this collection is a sad reminder of what we lost far too soon, and far too fast.
