Roll over Beethoven and show Bob Marley the views

This post was graphically enhanced in November 2007.

A Google Earth travelogue in 22 conjoined posts dedicated to music legend Robert Nesta Marley, born in Jamaica, embraced by the world.

Marley once said, "Facts an' facts, an' t'ings an t'ings: dem's all a lotta fockin' [fluffy bunnies]!" But I really don't think he'll object too strenuously if his fans enjoy a guided GE pilgrimage to locations that played pivotal roles during his 36 years with us here in Satellite Babylon.

"His image has taken on a religious level," Chris Blackwell, Marley's longtime producer and Island Records founder, told the Washington Times in late 2004. "He has become more important to people than a pop star." Photographer Kate Simon, who knew him well in the '70s, was a little bolder, but not unreasonably so: "Someday, he will be as big as Beethoven."

"Don´t forget your history, nor your destiny." – Bob Marley
