Search - Bunny Wailer :: Time Will Tell

OK I guess --- but hardly one for the ages

"A nice touch, I suppose --- the only surviving original Wailer singing a variety of Marley's pre- and post-1973 hits --- but this album seems largely uninspired and smacks more of the desire to make a quick buck than anything else. Bunny acquits himself decently but seems mostly to be going through the motions here. I suspect that the world of Reggae, running thinner & thinner on original ideas, turned once again to the well of Bob Marley, hoping to generate some more interest from the mainstream. It didn't work. The result is an album which isn't terrible, but nonetheless remains quite average & forgettable. If you never were to hear it, you wouldn't be missing anything."
