How is Bob Marley Related to rock and roll?

I'm doing a school project and I'm not sure how Bob Marley and his related to rock and roll. I know he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and his music had rock influences, but I'm looking for more.


Thanks!|||Reggae influenced Punk, Hip-Hop, and other genres of music, and Bob Marley was the first (and pretty much only) reggae artist to achieve the success he did, and become known worldwide.|||SMB has it right - He is in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame for his influence on some great rockers - Punk uses a lot of the technigues he inovated. Eric Clapton brought Marley to the main stream rock scene when he covered "I Shot The Sheriff".
