Why is Bob Marley So Important in Music?

Why is Bob Marley so important in music? Well, after my last post a while ago Rebel Music, where I featured some information on the important documentary DVD about Marley's life story, I think this is a question that is pretty easy to answer.

So when you're thinking to yourself why is this guy so important in music, the answer should come to you in a flash. His music is that timeless blend of creative genius, hugely popular reggae beat, well formed lyrics and a rhythm and soul that will move the sternest of bodies in time with its beauty and excellence.

Now if that ain't a top answer to a question like that, I don't know what is!

Just take some of the most popular of the great man's music and listen and I mean really listen to it and you'll realize that there is so much that was put into the performances and the creation processes that produced these masterpieces that there is nothing to touch it in its class.

Bob Marley and the Wailers were more than simply a popular reggae band from Jamaica that stormed the world with their easy going and very cool music. They were an institution all to themselves driven by the musical genius in Bob Nester Marley, the man himself and the driving rhythms and beat of the band he led.

if you were ever thinking of trying to play some of the star's songs or maybe pick up a guitar and learn them properly, I'd say you probably will need to take some professional guitar lessons so you can do them justice. That's the way to do it right.

Those of us who dearly love the great performer's musical genius for what it is still miss the man who created such rhythmic poetry and fine musical brilliance but his light will shine brightly as the most powerful sun in the universe for as long as there are appreciative ears to hear it and loving hearts to absorb it into the souls of the fans.

The great reggae star's unique brand of music lives on, my friends even if the mortal body that contain the immortal soul of the musical genius lies buried in the soil. This is why he is so important in musical life and always will be.
