Robert Nesta Marley was 36 years old when he died in a Miami hospital. In those 36 years, Marley became one of the most well-known musical performers to emerge from the West. Certainly the main figure in Jamaican music, Marley was as influential as he was well-loved. His volume of recordings, which began in 1964 and never really stopped, are perhaps the best legacy any musician could ever leave.
He will be sorely missed.
