Bob Marley - Natty Dread (Top 500 Countdown Update)

The first half of this album is much stronger than the second half. The lyrics and the sounds are more diverse and energized. I'm not a huge reggae fan, and don't care much for the harmonica brought in on this album, it really doesn't work for me. The problem is that Marley is such a good entertainer it is hard not to get pulled into the experience of listening to the album. I really like the song "Them Belly Full."
