She's obviously self taught, and even the way she sits at the kit looks awkward. But I give her props for hanging in there. She's a perfect fit for what he does, it's all raw and sloppy, that's the sound they go for.
Or went for, he just trashed her in an interview...
I know I 'like' every reggae song that gets posted but this is a significant one.
I think Marley's vocal skills are often overlooked, and even underrated. But this was the album where his singing really came into it's own, and his confidence as a singer is represented perfectly on this particular track. It's almost as if he is crooning like Sinatra. His phrasing and his non-lyrical riffing show how fearless a singer he was, totally un self-aware and honest.
I read that an English Normandy veteran living in a nursing home was told he couldn't attend today's memorial, so he busted out of there and smuggled himself to France!
I think Eddie Van Halen gets painted with a similar brush as Hendrix. A lot of people think he's all flare and fireworks and "Look at me" style soloing. But Eddie was a genius at rhythm playing too.
He was much more than just a "pyrotechnic soloing" guitar hero type. He was a incredible rhythm guitarist with impeccable taste, also a really original songwriter- "Castles Made of Sand", "Are You Experienced", "The Wind Cries Mary" just to name a few. He made his name of course with his outlandish stage act and obviously sensational soling ability.

All other drum solos are horrible.
I heard they had to bring in another drum set so Paul could alternate bass drum kicks...
Added depth and competition, this is a very good signing for what Villa are right now. Hopefully he is considered surplus to requirements sooner rather than later.
