What was it about Bob Marley that made him so popular in a world dominated by rocknroll? How is that he has not only remained the single most successful reggae artist ever but has also become a shining beacon of radicalism & peace to generation after generation of fans across the globe? On May 11 1981 a little after 11.30 in the morning Bob Marley died. The man who introduced reggae to a worldwide audience in his own lifetime he had already become a hero figure in the classic mythological sense. From immensely humble beginnings & with talent & religious belief his only weapons the Jamaican recording artist applied himself with unstinting perseverance to spreading his prophetic musical message. & he had achieved it: only a year earlier Bob Marley & The Wailers tour of Europe had seen them perform to the largest audiences a musical act had up to that point experienced. Record sales of Marleys albums before his death were spectacular; in the years since his death they have become phenomenal as each new generation discovers afresh the remarkable power of his music. Chris Salewicz who had a sequence of adventures with Bob Marley in Jamaica in 1979 offers us a comprehensive & detailed account of Bob Marleys life & the world in which he grew up & came to dominate. Never-before-heard interviews with dozens of people who knew Marley are woven through a narrative that brings to life not only the Rastafari religion & the musical scene in Jamaica but also the spirit of the man himself. ...
