Oakland California '79 Reviews:
Great playlist, bad quality 
2006-10-01 - I am very disappointed in this product. First of all, the music is very high-pitched. Second, Bob does not sound like himself at all. Third, on some of the tracks you can barely hear him singing. We will just have to wait until it is released on the Tuff Gong/Island label. Save your money!
Horrible 
2005-08-11 - I own several of the Japanese imports and this is by far the worst I've heard. I'm a die-hard fan and I can overlook sub-par sound quality given the uniqueness of the performance, but this is so bad it's not worth it. I listened to it once and filed it away. If you're considering it I hope you save your $$$ and pick from any number of other quality recordings that do Bob justice. This one never should have been released and those who did should be ashamed of themselves.
Bad Recording 
2000-08-19 - This is an awful recording of a great musician. It's a shame that this CD has such bad quality. On some of the tracks you can barley hear Bob Singing. On most of the tracks you can't even tell that it's Bob. If I were you I would stay away from this CD. There are Bob Marley CD's that are MUCH better than this.
