Behind the groovy rhythms of Caribbean melodies, the wailers explore on Catch A Fire themes of love, lust and friendship but also more seriously, the legacy of slavery and the (what seems everlasting) suffering of their people. Bob Marley and The Wailers sing anthems for their listeners with shared history to understand, reflect and unite over. As I listen, I realize more and more how much inspiration Hoba Hoba Spirit drew from this band and genre, decades later and an ocean apart. Music really is a universal language. Highlights of the album : - instrumental break on stir it up - Intro of no more trouble - Lyrics of slave driver - the sweetness (both lyrically and vocally) of high tide or low tide - the non vulgar sensuality of baby we’ve got a date

Not a bad album I guess but reallyyyy not my cup of tea

stronger second half of the album

really cool cover

So orchestral and nostalgic. Surprisingly really enjoyed the long intros. Really moody, cohesive and introspective.

Favorite songs : - Disarm - Geek USA

Spotify is missing every song but one from this album I believe…

Surprisingly enjoyed this! Will be checking out The Police further.

Absolutely did not enjoy this album. Way too long and pretentious.

Probably would be more like a 3.5. Not what I would usually listen to but very well executed and I think it has a lot of soul. Had only listened to the “Standing on the verge…”album before and I had liked it. This feels slightly different while still remaining true to the band’s DNA. Really like it.
