Natty Dread - Bob Marley and the Wailers
Natty Dread was the first Wailers album to give Marley top billing, and Marley's first without original Wailers Peter Tosh and Bunny Livingston. This was rebel music — from the opening "Lively Up Yourself" (a call to dance to the reggae beat or take to the streets, depending on how you looked at it) to "Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)," which warned that "a hungry mob is an angry mob." "No Woman, No Cry" was a compassionate gospel-flavored song about not giving up hope. Marley co-credited it to Vincent Ford — who ran a backyard soup kitchen — to help keep Ford's operation running.
