Melody

Melody

Wearing the mantle of his late father, Bob Marley, with dignity and good humor, Ziggy Marley is in fine form throughout this 105-minute concert filmed in 2001 in Pompano Beach, Florida. A performer who neither avoids nor capitalizes on the obvious comparisons with his legendary dad, Ziggy both looks and sounds like Bob, as does his brother Stephen, who takes several lead vocals (there are also two Marleys among the female backup singers, although their relationships to Ziggy are unclear). His music also draws on many of the same themes: song titles like "Justice," "Africa Unite," and "One Good Spliff" are self- explanatory. But there's only one Bob Marley song, "Jammin'," and while the lilting reggae beat is predominant, the Melody Makers also incorporate some contemporary rock and R&B elements. Not that the audience is much concerned with such details; they're there to party, and the musicians are happy to oblige. --Sam Graham
