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 34Roots, Rock, Reggae,34 Rastaman Vibration contains some of Marley039s most intense images of oppression, paranoia and despair.

Tracks such as 34Who the Cap Fit,34 34Crazy Baldhead34 and 34War34 are offered by the Wailers with dire urgency as Marley039s brutal visions are echoed by his own church choir, the IThrees.

More than four decades later, neither Marley039s music nor his message has lost its sting.Now, Analogue Productions presents perfection Rastaman Vibration cut at 45 RPM in UHQR format on 180gram 2LP Clarity Vinyl.

This Ultra High Quality Record release will be limited to 4,500 copies, with gold foil individually numbered jackets.For Bob Marley, 1975 was a triumphant year.

The singer039s Natty Dread album featured one of his strongest batches of original material the first compiled after the departure of Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer and delivered Top 40 hit 34No Woman No Cry.34 The followup Live set, a document of Marley039s appearance at London039s Lyceum, found the singer conquering England as well.

Upon completing the tour, Marley and his band returned to Jamaica, laying down the tracks for Rastaman Vibration 1976 at legendary studios run by Harry Johnson and Joe Gibbs.

At the mixing board for the sessions were Sylvan Morris and Errol Thompson, Jamaican engineers of the highest caliber.Of the material on Rastaman Vibration, 34War,34 for one, remains one of the most stunning statements of the singer039s career.

Though it is essentially a straight reading of one of Haile Selassie039s speeches, Marley phrases the text exquisitely to fit a musical setting, a quiet intensity lying just below the surface.

Equally strong are the likes of 34Rat Race,3434039Crazy Baldhead,34 and 34Want More.34 These songs are tempered by buoyant, lighthearted material like 34Cry to Me,34 34Night Shift,34 and 34Positive Vibration.34 Not quite as strong as some of the love songs Marley would score hits with on subsequent albums, 34Cry to Me34 seems like an obvious choice for a single and remains underrated.This UHQR is remastered at 45 RPM by Sterling Sound039s Ryan K.
