  • i'm sure this will make many people mad, but i don't think bob marley ever sang anything this good. sure he may have been more creative (this is a cover after all) and influential, but alton ellis had a better voice. he truly was mr. soul of jamaica.

  • @Kinshasa9200 both are kings. Marley is only more famous cause of better publicity.
