A Reggae Session

Summary: OK, a small nugget for those who saw it back in the late 80s
Review: This concert is OK at best. I still remember watching it on cable back in the late '80s (1988?). Bunny Wailer and Jimmy Cliff turn in the best performances. I still vividly remember Bunny Wailer singing "Rise and Shine" and Jimmy Cliff singing "Hanging Fire." Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers, if I recall correctly, only perform one song and Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders turns in an OK performance (although much better than the ragged turn she gives on the "One Love -- All Star Tribute to Bob Marley" DVD.
So, bottomline, if you saw this concert back in the '80s and still remember it, then it's worth buying. But if you haven't seen it, then you're not missing much. If it they had split the stage time between Ziggy Marley, Jimmy Cliff and Bunny Wailer, this would be a worthy purchase.
Try buying "Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers Live at the Palladium" and "Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers Live" instead. Also, take a chance with Peter Tosh's "Captured Live." (these are all on DVD).
