Wow! And just like that, another year has flown by. Just a few weeks before The Second Disc hits its 12th anniversary(!), this Christmas Eve it is our custom to look back on the last 12 months and take some time to think fondly of the music, magic, memories and friends that made our lives worth living. As if last year wasn't unconventional enough, 2021 packed more pop, clicks, skips and distortion than the most misguided vinyl pressings. We got vaccinated, we got boosted, we tentatively

Bob Marley Capitol Session

1973 was a landmark year for Bob Marley.  His band, The Wailers, released their sixth studio album in October to critical acclaim and commercial success.  Burnin' earned a Gold sales certification in the U.S. and eventually an induction into the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry.  The album introduced "Get Up, Stand Up" as well as the future Eric Clapton hit "I Shot the Sheriff."  But Marley and The Wailers weren't resting on their laurels around the time of the album's release.
