Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Awful Comment: I agree with the other negative reviews above. If you want to hear what sounds like a porn star breathily singing Bob Marley, this is perfect for you. Otherwise, don't waste your money. I could barely make it through the entire CD. And the female artist sounds NOTHING like Astrud Gil. I'll stick to pure Bob and never stray again! Customer Rating: Summary: Great Cover Comment: I found this album by mistake and I am glad it happened. The songs were covered in a great fashion, very melllow and yet melodic. Great album to relax and perhaps have a glass of wine. Customer Rating: Summary: Chillin' Out With Bob 'n Bossa Comment: I've listened for the first time to the songs on this CD on a LAN Chile flight where it was recently featured in the airline's in flight-entertainment system. Bossa N' Marley's a favorite with DJs in trendy clubs in Santiago and Buenos Aires. Of course the music on this CD has actually pretty little to do with either Bossa Nova nor with Reggae. It's 'just' simply a great chill-out album. Great for listening after work, in your favorite lounge, or wherever you feel the need for a refreshing summer feeling. The makers of this CD must have worked very hard to make the combination of Brazilian flavored Bossa Nova and Reggae work. But they really succeeded: This CD really works. The reason I think is that everybody knows the catchy Marley songs. And combined with some great Latin artists this thing had to become a success. My fav songs on this CD are the sensuous "I shot the sheriff", "Could you be loved", "Waiting in vain", and "One Love". I only didn't like too much "Stir it up". Apart from that a simply great album I'll probably listen to for many more times. Customer Rating: Summary: A Mellow Surprise Comment: First, if you're interested in reggae in the vein of Bob Marley, you will be disappointed. That being said, "Bossa N' Marley" is relaxing and enjoyable. I stumbled across this album and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. My personal favorites on the album were track 8, "Is this Love" and track 12, "Waiting in Vein". Once again, if you're interested in reggae and prefer to hear Marley as he was intended, you might not enjoy this jazzed up take on him. But if you don't mind jazzy lounge music, or just need an album to listen to when you're relaxing, you will most likely not be disappointed. Customer Rating: Summary: heard it in a bed and bath store and months later had to have it Comment: I was at sabon in nyc a natural body care store in june 2006. their ambiance is obviously a sultry, romantic, step into the bubble bath right now kind of store. i asked them what was playing in the background and i think the guy was trying to elude telling me the title. In April of 2007, i went back to the store to buy some more products and this time a female was there. i asked her where the music came from and she told me bossa n Marley. i googgled it when i came home and when i saw that amazon carried it, i was ecstatic. I especially like the tracks that are a slower tempo (redemption song, stir it up, i shot the sheriff, etc) i may skip past the faster songs as its not my thing. but over all the cd reflects different types of bossa nova and that is cool bc it would be boring to listen to the same beat over and over. buy this and you wont be disappointed. great for mingle music at a dinner party, a spa session with your hubby, wind down music on the commute home from work, even for vacay music on the sand beaches of jamaica.

Editorial Reviews: After the Monumental Success of Bossa N´ Stones (An Album that Has Revolutionized the Electronic Music Market) Comes the Next Bossa Flavour, this Time with the Repertoire of the Late Great Bob Marley. The Combination of Lyrics Written by One of the Most Passionate and Pacifist Songwriters of Our Time Along with the Elegant Arrangements of Bossa Nova and the Futuristic Spirit of Electronic Music Are a Natural Mix. Bossa N' Marley Includes Hymns for Universal Brotherhood and Songs of Revolt that Take on New Significance with a Sound that Fits Snuggly Between the Tradition of Bossa Nova and the Innovation of Chill Out. Like Its Predecessor, Bossa N' Marley is an Album that Delineates an Exciting Trend in Music. MBB. 2005.
