Madacy, you could do better

"Bob Marley has become the symbol of reggae. He has a unique, powerful voice that just brightens any room. This budget priced set, 20 Best of Bob Marley, isn't what you think it is.
First of all, the appropriate title would be '20 Best of The Wailers,' considering Peter Tosh sings on several of these songs. I LOVE Peter Tosh, but why is his music on a Bob Marley collection?
And, the sound quality is not great. It's not as bad as some of these Madacy releases, but they could do a lot better.
And, my last issue is that 'Trenchtown Rock' is edited.
My advice is for somebody wanting to sample Bob's early years, ignore this one and pick up '20th Century Masters.' The sound quality is superb. Although that one has 10 as opposed to the 20 offered here, it is still a much better buy. Despite the fact that is priced cheap, DON'T BE FOOLED!!!"
