Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: In the wake of reggae's breakthrough into rock awareness with the Robin Hood saga, The Harder They Come, the soundtrack that first rooted the music's sultry push beat and seductive patois in the underclass struggles of modern Jamaica erupted forcefully on this 1973 classic--The Wailers' second album targeting beyond their underground to fresh, impressionable rock fans. What was a revelation to rockers was really the work of a seasoned band captured on the eve of internal upheaval: Trenchtown stars since the late '60s, the band's most charismatic member, Bob Marley, loomed as its perceived frontman, a development which hastened the departures of Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer and made Burnin' the final statement from that earlier configuration. The original version of "I Shot the Sheriff", which had spread reggae's outlaw ethos and staccato, propulsive sound on Eric Clapton's hit cover, is more than matched by the anthemic "Get Up, Stand Up", the call-to-arms of "Burnin' And Lootin'", the Rastafarian pride of "Rasta Man Chant", as well as strong remakes of "Small Axe" and "Duppy Conqueror". --Sam Sutherland Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating: - Inspirational ReggaeIm 14 and was digging through my dads record collection when i came across Burnin'. I love Hip-Hop and because people were saying that Rap came from Reggae i tried it. I loved it. anyone who thinks reggae is just for the rastas and hippies, just try it. it's a cool cd and shows the roots of today's Hip-Hop. Buy it now and experience true reggae. Rating: - Marley supremeBurnin must be one of the finest albums of the 70's. The sheer power of Marley's lyrics and music must make any listener a fan of Marley's works. An interesting sideline is that the song Hallelujah time inspired John Lennon's return to recording in 1980 containing the line 'Livin on Borrowed Time'. Buy |
