The importance of TALKIN' BLUES as a historical musical document cannot be stressed enough. The bulk of BLUES finds Marley interview segments interspersed between portions of a live session recorded during the Wailers' initial 1973 American tour (which included a date opening for Bruce Springsteen at Max's Kansas City.) By this time, the band's formidable stage presence had resulted in their being dumped as the supporting act for Sly & The Family Stone. Bunny Wailer had returned to Jamaica and mentor Joe Higgs was recruited to take his place. These recordings overflow with the magic of the Wailers, despite the fact that the band was playing before a handful of people during a closed session. |
|
The most captivating moments come during the interaction between Marley and Peter Tosh on "Kinky Reggae" and "Get Up Stand Up." The contrast of the former's honeyed vocals and the latter's nasal delivery spark a yearning for more material by this tempestuous duo. Tosh later takes a solo vocal on "Can't Blame The Youth" that quivers with a coolly defiant tone. Equally impressive are the sweet harmonies of The I-Threes on the title track and the rhythmically whip-smart reading of "Burnin' & Lootin." |
