Robert "Bob" Nesta Marley (February 6, 1945 – May 11, 1981) was a Jamaican singer-songwriter and musician. He was the lead singer, songwriter and guitarist for the ska, rocksteady and reggae bands: The Wailers (1964 – 1974) and Bob Marley & the Wailers (1974 – 1981). Marley remains the most widely known and revered performer of reggae music, and is credited for helping spread Jamaican music to the worldwide audience.

Marley's best known hits include "I Shot the Sheriff", "No Woman, No Cry", "Exodus", "Could You Be Loved", "Stir It Up", "Jamming", "Redemption Song", "One Love" and, together with The Wailers, "Three Little Birds", as well as the posthumous releases "Buffalo Soldier" and "Iron Lion Zion". The compilation album, Legend, released in 1984, three years after his death, is the best-selling reggae album ever (10 times platinum in US), with sales of more than 20 million copies.

It totally looked like the cowardly lion the entire time I was solving it. I am still laughing, because I can't get that image out of my head! LOL

Nice one.

As soon as I saw the title I knew that it was going to be Bob Marley. My daughter and son-in-law are crazy about him. I like your image, good job. Thanks
#4: Petra Lassen (stjarna) on Mar 16, 2009
Thank you, Adam! I'll have to look and see if I can see the lion.
Than you Ellen, too! Yes, I realized that REAL fans would know who it was.

not sure who he is but I think I could recognize him from your puzzle. Excellent job.

Awesome image; those of you who make portraits sure have my praise; I don't know how you construct such good likenesses!!! Great job, Petra! (Can there really be a new generation out there who doesn't know who Bob Marley was? Sigh - now I know I'm getting old...)
#7: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Mar 23, 2009
Yes, there definitely is. Even some of the older generation might not know who he is if they don't care for his genre.
#8: Petra Lassen (Stjarna) on Mar 25, 2009
Everyone SHOULD know! LOL!

I'm a fan. Really nice image - great angle.

Here's the picture and a nice song:

#12: Petra Lassen (Stjarna) on Aug 21, 2010
Thanks, Shelly! I'll look it up!

The outer black made me think of Marley, but I also saw the Cowardly Lion. The Lion dropped of my list as more upper face features came in. Googled <nesta> and got a soccer player - with long dark hair, so...

Cool puzzle! I like the angle.
