When it comes to music that is considered "easy-listening", reggae is one of the first genres that come to mind. Bob Marley & The Wailers are the undisputed kings of the genre, and Kaya is their most "easy-listening" album the group ever released, and that is definitely saying something. Some classic Wailers tunes are on this thing, most notably "Is This Love", "Sun Is Shining", and "Time Will Tell". The re-recordings of the title-track and "Satisfy My Soul" are great as well. These tracks were recorded when Marley was in the U.K., and were from the same sessions as the immortal Exodus, which speaks a lot about their high quality. It lacks the more militant ideology of earlier records, essentially being an album about getting high with the ones you love. Sounds like a good time any way you put that, right? In this sense, it ends up being the perfect counterpart to its predecessor, and one of the gems in Marley's discography.

Though this record holds a fair number of recognizable Marley favourites, as well as a much needed more peaceful atmosphere, I can't help but feel like something is missing here. Kaya just seems to fall a little short of being a truly great record, though there aren't many weak spots here to complain about.
