Kind of a moot point, given that all 20 hopefuls are shacked up somewhere other than Idol’s normal Los Angeles soundstage.

Beyond 'Legend': 25 Classic Album Cuts From Bob Marley's Catalog

There’s little that can be said about Bob Marley that hasn’t already: he’s a cultural icon, a global ambassador for peace and "One Love," and one of the most recognizable figures, even beyond music, around the globe.And when it comes to that music, the entry point for most fans is Legend, the 1984 greatest-hits compilation that is one of the most successful albums released in the history of recorded music.But for all of Legend’s iconic songs -- which applies pretty much to its entire track list -- the compilation tends to gloss over much of the message that Marley was sending throughout his lifetime in his Island Records discography, which is the reason he’s so revered as a champion for the downtrodden the world over.
