Notes: While not a children's album per se, Ziggy Marley's third album FAMILY TIME takes child rearing, family togetherness, and the experiences of childhood as its main themes. Instrumentally it more or less reprises the gentle, impeccably-played roots reggae of Ziggy's first two full-lengths, while an impressive roster of illustrious guests share vocal duties. Unsurprisingly, given the album's subject matter, the extended Marley family makes a strong showing. Ziggy's mother Rita, his sister Cedella, and his daughter Judah share vocal duties with some more unexpected guests including Willie Nelson and Paul Simon.

The eldest son of the most famed reggae performer in history, Ziggy scored the first U.S. top 40 hit for the Marley name in 1988's upbeat "Tomorrow People" off his third album, CONSCIOUS PARTY. Surrounded by a backing band of family members collectively known as the Melody Makers, Ziggy Marley carries on in Bob's tradition, composing and performing smooth, socially conscious roots reggae songs. A sought-after college performer, Marley kept his flame alive into the `00s on the well-received DRAGONFLY.
