TVD Vinyl Giveaway:
Bob Marley and the Wailers, Legend 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition

Oh, just admit it—you already have a copy of Bob Marley and the Wailers’ Legend on your shelves. (Hell, we have 2.) And you should have a copy of Legend in your possession as it serves as a brilliant, concise overview of the musical output from reggae superstar and genius, Mr. Robert Nesta Marley.

We’re willing to bet however that your copy of Legend is a bit… how do we say it—well loved—and might merit an upgrade in the form of Legend’s 30th Anniversary tri-color vinyl reissue which landed on store shelves just last week.

“Originally released on May 8, 1984, Bob Marley’s Legend illustrates the remarkable life and recording career of one of reggae music’s most important figures. This iconic collection not only serves as the perfect introduction to the music of Bob Marley, it has become an essential part in every Marley collection.
It remains the world’s best-selling reggae album and continues to be one of the best-selling catalog albums, exceeding 15 million RIAA-certified copies in the U.S. alone and over 27 million worldwide.”

“On July 1, 2014, Universal Music Enterprises celebrates the 30th Anniversary of Legend with the release of the CD/Blu-ray Pure Audio Disc (AND vinyl. —Ed.) combo set Legend 30th Anniversary Edition (Island Records/Tuff Gong/UMe). Coupled with the original release of Legend, this deluxe version features this iconic collection entirely mixed in 5.1 by the GRAMMY Award winning producer Bob Clearmountain on Blu-Ray Pure Audio Disc and now includes the original, early studio version of “No Woman No Cry,” in lieu of the previous live version.

Also featured are two, previously unheard alternate takes of “Easy Skanking” and “Punky Reggae Party” recently discovered in the Marley vault. Classic Marley anthems include “Three Little Birds,” “Get Up Stand Up,” “One Love/People Get Ready,” “No Woman No Cry,” and “I Shot The Sheriff,” which was later a No. 1 hit for Eric Clapton, as well as “Jamming,” “Exodus,” “Redemption Song,” and “Is This Love.”

Enter to win Bob Marley and the Wailers’ 30th Anniversary 2LP, tri-color vinyl edition of Legend by telling us in the comments below what additional track from Bob’s vast catalog that’s NOT on Legend you deem just as classic as the ones which have made Legend so well, legendary—and there are many.

We’ll choose one winner with a North American mailing address one week from today, 7/16!
