Bob Marley - Trench Town Rock [Direct Source] (CD)

All Music Guide

Another of the CMC Marley compilations that include rare and hardtofind songs. Highlights include the title track, as well as the second track "Rebel Hop." "Rebel Hop" is a highenergy performance, which runs through a number of familiar Marley lyrics including "Walk the Proud Land my Friend" and " Keep on Movin'." The sound quality is somewhat uneven, but not distractingly so. Most likely these recordings were transferred from vinyl and then remastered, and some of them come through the process better than others. Though the recordings here are not for the hifi purist, the music is plenty good. Any casual Marley fan will find something they like here, and the true fanatic will be pleased to find some rare material.
