I like the melding of music and narrative. The piece flows nicely and allows you to take in the essence of Marley and the insight of Alexander.
A lot is accomplished in a mere minute and a half, reinforcing the idea that content and production value rule over length for its own sake.
And the timing is double right to run the piece today (2/4/05). Bob Marley's birthday is this Sunday and February is Black History Month.
