Bob Marley - Drunk Monk - 11-18-2005
Slogans by Bob Marley (with Eric Clapton)
I'm a confessed Marley addict. I blame ED. Years ago, he got me to buy this CD bootleg from Germany of a live Marley show. It turned out to be his final show, and it was incredible. Since then, I've amassed a large Marley collection - hard-to-finds, live shows, remixes, rediscovery tracks - not quite 100 CDs but close. I have his most prized track Selassie is the Chapel, only released on a few vinyls originally. I have his White Christmas cover. I have his What's new Pussycat cover. When I served as sermonizer for Jennifer Bailey's wedding, they compensated me by giving me the whole re-release catalog of Tuff Gong's label, and I treasure that collection to this day.
I'm shocked. SHOCKED. I don't have Slogans.
Slogans is a spin on one of my favorite Marley riddems, Jah Live. The lyrics are classic Marley, even more relevant now then when he first sung them - prophetic, eternal. They've overdubbed in Clapton; I guess because he ripped off Marley's Sheriff with an horridly insipid 'slow hand version. I'd like to hear this Slogans stripped of Clapton's overdubs. It's going to be released with a whole bunch of other singles - those I probably have - out of Tuff Gong, with some remixes by one of the Black Eyed Peas. I have serious issues with the BEP. But I'm Tuff Gong loyal. There's also some sort of mash up of a Get Up Stand Up and Jamrock, that Jr. Gong tune I was so into this summer.
Now you know what to get me for Xmas.

Happy Birthday Bob!
I did get invited to the screener of ONE LOVE - twice! There was an early one several weeks ago then another next week, but I'm going to get a ticket for this like a normal person.
