Marley's third solo release, Family Time, is produced with old friend Don Was on Marley's independent Tuff Gong Worldwide label. An easygoing journey of original tunes and a few covers, the album offers a full collection of family- oriented songs for those already familiar with Marley's beloved work in the genre, and may serve to introduce today's youngest generation to reggae. Highly listenable many times around, a quality that parents will appreciate, Family Time resonates with themes of love, responsibility, unity, freedom and fun (not to mention generosity - proceeds from the sale of Family Time will benefit Chepstowe Basic School in Port Antonio, Jamaica). It was a joy to make and opened up new avenues in my creativity." "Usually my songs mean more than one thing. Family Time is my family, your family, the world's family." |

| Sunday, September 12 @ 3pm Screening "Following" Hastings Public Library If you were one of the millions of people who fell victim to the hype surrounding Christopher Nolan’s recently released film, “Inception,” and can’t understand what all the fuss (or the film) was about, please join us on September 12th. We will screen Nolan’s first feature, “Following,” which is as good as any directorial debut I have ever seen and serves as a prelude to his remarkable later work (Memento, Insomnia, The Dark Knight). Your attention will not flag for one moment from the first shot until the final credits. The film begins by telling the story of a man who is fascinated by the idea of following strangers. Where it goes from there is as difficult to summarize as it is to take your eyes off of. Dessert and discussion to follow. |
