Bob Marley was a hero figure, in the classic mythological sense. His departure from this planet came at a point when his vision of One World, One Love -- inspired by his belief in Rastafari -- was beginning to be heard and felt. The last Bob Marley and the Wailers tour in 1980 attracted the largest audiences at that time for any musical act in Europe.

One Love trawls through Marley's most revered studio albums to bring together 20 of his most famous--if not his best--songs. As we all know by now, Marley is a legendary figure whose music stands eternal and most of the records featured here are already grafted permanently on to our sonic subconscious. A simple nanosecond intro of any of the songs featured here--"Stir It Up", "Exodus", "One Love/People Get Ready", "Lively Up Yourself", "Jamming"--is all that's required to provoke goosepimples, and an overwhelming desire to start building camp-fires and crooning. Although it could be asked whether such overly familiar songs really need to be aired again, once you begin listening to the album such doubts fade quickly. Marley's erudite and incisive lyricism and penchant for writing timeless, catchy and heart-warming songs was startling and it's no bad thing to be reminded of this. Though some of his political sentiments may seem anachronistic and irrelevant today, his spiritual messages and humane optimism still stir the heart and soul.
