A fantastic and influential album. Try and put aside the political and social messages, and it still stands up as a musical masterpiece. Marley's vision was simple: bring together people through music. It helped that he was a half decent songwriter and performer. I'd never considered the two sides to the story on the album: one political, one personal. It's all music to me. Waiting in Vain has always hit a personal spot. A remarkable record.

This album put me off Bob Marley and reggae for a very long time. Not his finest 50 minutes, by any stretch. Just find the whole thing a bit thin, in terms of songs and energy. I know it was meant to be a toe in the water for the non-reggae audience, but it had the opposite effect on me. Bland.
