Álbum Natty Dread de Bob Marley - Canciones

Natty Dread

Reseña

El primer álbum de Bob Marley junto a su remodelada banda, The Wailers, aparece en 1974 bajo el sello Island. Con producción de Chris Blackwell junto a The Wailers, el disco aparece tras el abandono de la banda por parte de Peter Tosh y Bunny Livigston, por la creciente presión y el estrés generado por las giras y la presión del éxito.

Los temas del álbum rebosan energía por los cuatro costados, desde su primera canción, "Lively Up Yourself", con mensajes de hondo calado político, como en los temas "Them Belly Full", "Rebel Music", "Talkin Blues" o "Revolution", que hicieron tambalear los pilares de la política jamaicana

El álbum incluye una versión en directo del tema "No Woman, No Cry", que le valió a Marley para conseguir colocarse en el top ten de las listas británicas. La canción fue escrita por Bob Marley, pero este la acreditó a Vincent Ford, un granjero que le ofreció alojamiento y comida cuando era joven y andaba necesitado. Por ese motivo, en señal de agradecimiento, en todos los créditos aparece el nombre de Ford.

La vitalidad de los temas de este poderoso "Natty Dread" se vio beneficiada por las bases rítmicas de los hermanos Barret, junto a la guitarra de Al Anderson y las magníficas voces de las denominadas i-Threes, Rita Marley, Marcia Griffiths y Judy Mowatt.

    letra de Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)

    Na-na na na-na na na na;
    Na-na na na-na na na na;
    Na-na na na-na na na na;
    Na-na na na-na na na na.

    Them belly full, but we hungry;
    A hungry mob is a angry mob.
    A rain a-fall, but the dutty tough;
    A yot a-yook, but d' yood no 'nough.

    You're gonna dance to Jah music, dance;
    We're gonna dance to Jah music, dance, oh-ooh!

    Forget your troubles and dance!
    Forget your sorrows and dance!
    Forget your sickness and dance!
    Forget your weakness and dance!

    Cost of livin' gets so high,
    Rich and poor they start to cry:
    Now the weak must get strong;
    They say, "Oh, what a tribulation!"
    Them belly full, but we hungry;
    A hungry mob is a angry mob.
    A rain a-fall, but the dutty tough;
    A pot a-yook, but d' yood* no 'nough.

    We're gonna chuck to Jah music - chuckin';
    We're chuckin' to Jah music - we're chuckin'.

    A belly full, but them hungry;
    A hungry mob is a angry mob.
    A rain a-fall, but the dutty tough;
    A pot a-cook, but d' food* no 'nough.
    A hungry man is a angry man;
    A rain a-fall, but the dutty tough;
    A pot a-yook, but you no 'nough'
    A rain a-fall, but the dutty tough.
    A pot a-cook, but you no 'nough;
    A hungry mob is a angry mob;
    A hungry mob is a angry mob.
