Is It Rolling Bob? A Reggae Tribute to Bob Dylan Review
A phenomenal re-imagination of songs of America's most noted songwriter by some of the most celebrated reggae musicians, this remarkable collection marries reggae stars like Toots Hibbert, Beres Hammond, The Mighty Diamonds, and Sizzla with Dylan material ranging from "Blowin' In The Wind" (1963) to "Gotta Serve Somebody" (1979).
Says album producer Doctor Dread, "As a major fan of both Bob Dylan and Bob Marley, I believe this record really addresses the commonality between their audiences; Dylan was a voice of the oppressed in the 1960s just as Bob Marley was a voice of the oppressed in the 1970s."
