EVERY once in a while there is an album that’s uplifting and puts a smile on your face every time you listen to it. For me, Family Time by Ziggy Marley is one such production. There is no doubt that Ziggy’s more illustrious father Bob Marley lends credence to his name, but that does not mean that Ziggy’s music is forgettable. Far from it!
Ziggy has four Grammy Awards under his belt including best reggae album in 2007 for Loving is My Religion.
He continues his good work with an album that is suitable for kids and adults alike. It kicks off with the title track and the message from this song sets the tone for the rest of the album – the importance of family.
With the infectious reggae beats featuring a star-studded guest list, I can’t find cause to complain. Every song here is superb but if I had the tough choice of picking the best, they would be Cry, Cry, Cry (with Jack Johnson and Paula Fuga), Ziggy Says and Wings of an Eagle(with Elizabeth Mitchell).
Jamie Lee Curtis concludes Family Time by narrating two stories – both with a message. Your morale could really be lifted after listening to this album.
