Bob Marley and The Wailers – Rastaman Vibration – Analogue Productions SACD
Available to Pre-Order
Bob Marley & The Wailers — Rastaman Vibration Hybrid Stereo SACD release from Analogue Productions Mastered Direct To DSD by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original master tape Plays in all CD and SACD players When Rastaman Vibration was first released in America in 1976 it did what some in the music industry considered nearly impossible at the time. It took Bob Marley into the Top Ten alongside disco records and corporate rock, points out Rolling Stone, which rates the album 4 stars. Despite the good cheer of the title track and the upbeat "Roots, Rock, Reggae," Rastaman Vibration contains some of Marley's most intense images of oppression, paranoia and despair. Tracks such as "Who the Cap Fit," "Crazy Baldhead" and "War" are offered by the Wailers with dire urgency as Marley's brutal visions are echoed by his own church choir, the I-Threes. More than four decades later, neither Marley's music nor his message has lost its sting.
