Twenty-seven years ago this Sunday, the world lost an artist whose music stirred millions—Bob Marley. Marley was only 36 years old when he succumbed to cancer and his international career was brief, but throughout the 1970s he touched listeners around the globe with his rootsy brand of reggae. Tonight, our annual Bob Marley Remembrance. Plus, this month's Featured Album is a live performance from May 2, 1960, by another legend, who is still with us—Harry Belafonte. In 1960, Belafonte once again took the stage at Carnegie Hall, one year after his debut at the musical shrine. For this concert, he invited some guests including a young Miriam Makeba. Enjoy the spontaneity of Harry Belafonte Returns to Carnegie Hall.
