Jimmy Cliff~ Classic Reggae, etc.:
This gentleman is right up there with Marley....well, close!
He's still with us too....
Many Rivers To Cross:
http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=XcZaV_2qnDA&feature=relatedA friend in Sac asked me what I was up to a few years back & I said I was in Limbo--just waiting to move back to the Southland--& asked him & some others if they knew that great JC song--Sitting Here In Limbo. They didn't.
On the way home back to fokkin' Kelseyville I stopped for gas & as I paid at the counter there was a Jimmy Cliff cd on a rack with that song on it--& Bongo Man, Many Rivers To Cross, & other great songs. I think it was The Essential Jimmy Cliff. I bought it of course! Cosmic
Not sure what happened to it...I may have sold it to Amoeba when I was in between money.
Wikipedia says he's made 25 albums but I don't see the one I had--His Greatest Hits:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_CliffI'm gonna get the movie The Harder They Come:

Thot I was HOME living back in the house I grew up in, in the town I was born in....
....but now I'm movin' on again....lookin' for a new home....
...& realizing that our Real Home is back in the spiritual realm with the Lord.
...& we don't have to die to be with Him!
Jimmy Cliff's songs are very spiritual....but one seems kind of materialistic.
You Can Get It If You Really Want It!
One more that'll make ya feel happy for sure:
