I’ve been a Bob Marley fan since the weekend in my teens when I visited my brother at the University of Pennsylvania and discovered that he had the Reggae master’s full library on CD. I was mesmerized – it was some of the best music I’d ever heard. So when I found out that there was a kids version of the Marley classics being released I was all over it. At first I thought that the CD would be cute kids singing the songs we all know and love, but it’s not. It’s remastered, revised and there is a kids chorus added to several songs, but it’s all Bob. I played the CD for Dev last week and now it’s all he requests.
Since I am a true Bob fan and trust Dev’s musical taste I am participating in a FREE giveaway of B is for Bob. Here’s how to get your hands on a CD:
The first FIVE people to correctly guess Dev’s favorite song from the CD will get a copy. It’s that easy. Everyone get’s two guesses so make them count. If you know Bob and Dev then this should be easy. (Hint: His favorite song is in the first half of the CD.)Click on this link to get the list of songs on the album to choose from (scoll down when you get to the page). Leave your guesses in the comments section and don’t forget to add your email address so I can reach you if you win.

B is for Bob –
I’m guessing Three Little Birds, mon.
I’m going with 3 Little Birds too. (I don’t know your son, but my daughter and I were singing along to Elizabeth Mitchell’s cover in the car this morning, so…)
Oh yeah, we get 2 guesses? Okay, then Jamming for my second. 🙂
I’m gonna have to break the status quo, and go with Jammin!.
Since I get two guesses, I’ll put the rest of my weight behind Three Little Birds.
Holla!
My guess is Three Little Birds as well. Because it was my sons favorite when he was Dev’s age.
I would guess Three Little Birds Too – Thanks for this giveaway. Had no idea there was Bob Marley kids CD!
Hi Keith,
Welcome to the Uptake family. I’m the Lodging Editor and I’m also a Bob Marley fan!
Three Little Birds has got to be a kid favorite. My second guess is jammin. My teenagers like Bob Marley, too.
@Nancydbrown for all things travel-related.
I’m new here, so I don’t know you yet, but just by looking at the song titles, I decided to go with Three Little Birds and Jamming.
Would this CD make for good traveling tunes? We’re always looking for new car songs!
That is so very cool – I didn’t know about this CD either. I’ll have to tell my friend about this – she’s got 2 little twin boys who I’m sure she’d love to expose to Marley as they grow up.
I don’t know your son since this is my first time stopping by but I personally would enjoy Lively Up Yourself – and Jammin’.
Welcome to UpTake – I write part-time for the Attractions blog.
My first guess is Stir It Up
Second is jamming.
Thanks for the chance!
I don’t want to be entered in the contest, but I’m going to guess Lively Up Yourself and 3 Little Birds.
My girl’s favorite Bob Marley song? Johnny Was a Good Man.
