Happy Birthday, Bob

Today, February 6th, is the 64th anniversary of the birth of the great reggae musician, Bob Marley.

Last night, at midnight, the DJ in Saddle Cantina chose to mark this event by playing an excruciating modern 're-mix' of No Woman, No Cry - an atrocity so foul as to make me to reconsider my position on the death penalty.

This, I feel, would be an altogether more appropriate commemoration - Stir It Up.



Or this - Redemption Song, from a concert he gave in Dortmund less than a year before his death.
