Born Robert Nesta Marley in Saint Ann's Parish, Jamaica, Bob Marley was not just a musician and Reggae icon, he is a symbol - if not THE symbol - of Jamaican culture and identity worldwide. According to Rolling Stone magazine, "his is the voice of oppressed people the world over."
Before Bob Marley came on the scene, many in Britain dismissed reggae as either the stuff of one-hit wonders or skinhead dance music. Now it is recognised as influential style, which has not only sold millions of records worldwide but had a major effect on the mainstream. Eric Clapton, the Police and the Clash are just three artists touched by reggae's magic and Marley's majesty.
This performance at The Record Plant, Sausalito on 31st October 1973, broadcast on KSAN-FM, features Get Up Stand Up, Lively Up Yourself and Stop That Train. Marley's music was timeless and this collection can only scratch the surface of Bob Marley's genius.
