Throughout his life and perhaps even more since his death in 1981
at the age of 36, Bob Marley's music has demonstrated a unique
ability to combine with almost any cultural setting, no matter how
different the elements might at first appear. Through his
adaptable, yet enduring musical messages, he represents an
especially articulate type of singer-songwriter. Marley released a
large quantity of introspective, autobiographical material at the
height of his success and it is thus only in a work such as
this—in which the artist is investigated through his recorded
output—that one can understand who this great man truly was and
what he hoped to achieve through his life and music. Time magazine
made Bob Marley's impact strikingly clear when it named Exodus the
most important album of the 20th century. Throughout his life and
perhaps even more since his death in 1981 at the age of 36,
Marley's music has demonstrated a unique ability to combine with
almost any cultural setting, no matter how different the elements
might at first appear. Through his adaptable, yet enduring musical
messages, he represents an especially articulate type of
singer-songwriter. Marley released a large quantity of
introspective, autobiographical material at the height of his
success and it is thus only in a work such as this—in which the
artist is investigated through his recorded output—that one can
understand who this great man truly was and what he hoped to
achieve through his life and music. The Words and Music of Bob
Marley investigates Marley's creative output chronologically and
provides complementary biographical information where it is
relevant and helpful. Themes discussed throughout the book include
protest, revolution, love, hate, biblical concepts, and Rastafari
culture.
