| | Bob Marley No Sympathy CD Bob Marley Discography of CDs
The tracks Bob Marley and the Wailers cut with legendary reggae producer Lee Perry in Jamaica in the late 1960s and early '70s are sadly less well-known than the group's later discography. However, Marley fans have cause for celebration, as this set packs 16 of the reggae legend's early songs into one convenient package. This music offers such a unique stylistic blend of reggae's rock-steady rhythm and slinkier R&B elements that it still sounds fresh some 30 years after its creation. Marley's songwriting is as strong as ever, while on "Soul Rebel," "Try Me," and "My Cup," his textured, soulful voice infuses the songs with characteristic passion, delivering hook-filled melodic lines over irresistibly groovy beats.
Late 60s and early 70s Marley and the Wailers tracks produced by Lee "Scratch" Perry. Tougher and more organic than their later Island albums.

Purchase No Sympathy CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Eek-A-Mouse U-Neek CD (1991)
No Sympathy album
$8.65 In the 1980s, Eek-A-Mouse (a quirky, eccentric toaster/singer) made significant contributions to dubwise, which evolved into the more abrasive dancehall style associated with Shabba Ranks, Nardo Ranks and Lt. Stitchie. Essentially, toasters like Mouse are reggae's equivalent of rappers, although dub was around long before hip-hop emerged in the late '70s. U-Neek finds the distinctive Mouse incorporating hip-hop touches here and there without becoming as forceful as the dancehall artists he influenced. Most of this CD -- which ranges "Gangster Chronicles" (a number that finds him adding lyrics to the theme from The Godfather) and the troubling "Rude Boys a ...

| | Catch 22 Permanent Revolution CD (2006)
No Sympathy music CDs
$10.09 Break out the checkered suspenders and dust off those old history books -- you're gonna need 'em both. Ready or not, New Jersey's Catch 22 has arrived with their academic soiree, Permanent Revolution. It's a concept album that ambitiously follows the life of Leon Trotsky, Bolshevik revolutionary and father of Marxist theory. (Who knew these ska-punks were also scholars?) After the band was forced to find new singers following both Keasbey Nights and Alone in a Crowd, Permanent Revolution is the second proper effort with saxophonist Ryan Eldred and trumpeter Kevin Gunther trading off on vocals. And coming off the lukewarm and mixed response to Dinosaur Sounds, this album should find fans more pleasantly greeted than the unsteady rock that dominated that 2003 record. Even with a lyrical theme that finds the band stretching itself a bit thin with straightforward insight ("Stay true to principle and give your all for all!"), the music stands firm. And this is a good thing, since really, while a Russian history lesson is a noble task, its still seems a little awkward revved up to the tune of the third wave. The soundtrack to the Bolshevik Revolution this is not. But it is enjoyable music. When certain ...
| | Bob Marley Songs Of Freedom CDs (1992) Box Set
No Sympathy songs
$38.49 Includes liner notes by Rob Partridge, Rita Marley, Derrick Morgan, John "Rabbit" Bundrick and Timothy White.
During his all-too brief life, Bob Marley established himself as one of the giants of modern music; he stands on par with the likes of Miles Davis and Bob Dylan, performers who took established musical forms and revolutionized them, who continually evolved their vision throughout their careers. From his first single, the bouncy "Judge Not," through a loose, live rendition of the haunting "Redemption Song" performed at his last stage appearance, SONGS OF FREEDOM documents Bob Marley's musical legacy better than any previous compilation, and probably, better than any likely to come.
Marley was at his peak at the time of his death in 1981, meaning there is no filler or weak material here, only four solid discs of great songs. His philosophical evolution is easily seen: listen to a rude-boy anthem, like the early hit "Simmer Down," next to a later exploration of Rastafarianism, such as "Crazy Baldheads," and eventual statements of pan-Africanism ...

The world's second oldest profession--pimping--is apparently near and dear to the hearts of these three gents. On such tracks as the insistent "Don't Touch My Money" they ...
