[keviniscool42]

does anyone know where you can download this song????/

[Chelseacaps]

@keviniscool42 ITunes?

[TxTFamGuy1]

@keviniscool42 If you don't know how to use the internet by now, then you've got problems. If you want to pay money so a corporation can get rich off a dead man's 30 year old music try amazon ebay or itunes. If you wanna be a pirate then join some forums and try a torrent or a file hosting site.

[Catch22ish]

early form of Ska!

[TxTFamGuy1]

@Catch22ish Don't just say things without checking the facts. Ska music was from 1960-65 when Ska rhythms were replaced with Rocksteady. This recording was released in 1965 so it would not be an early form of Ska, it is one of the last examples of Jamaican Ska. Also The Wailers backing band on this album was The Skatalites who were one of the greatest Jamaican Ska session groups. 2-tone is not ska, 3rd wave is not ska, white boy ska is a joke, OP IVY is the only punk ska band i give props to.

[workingclass75]

@TxTFamGuy1 Factoid: Rocksteady replaced Ska because JA was going through a terrible heat wave...and the slower smoother sounds of Rocksteady were more appropriate for dancing in the heat. The more you know....

[TxTFamGuy1]

@workingclass75 Musicians make music, not dancers. Slowing the sound gave the organist and the bassist room for creativity and it allowed the pianist to break away from the guitarist. Ska was the Jamaican's attempt at Blues Boogie Woogie music. As a musician, Ska is very simplistic the horns, guitar, piano, organ are all playing the same cording and the bass plays a very short blues scale. Jamaican music is my raison d'être, the music tells its own story if you listen to it closely enough.

[workingclass75]

@TxTFamGuy1 In JA the nusic is made and promoted at street level..a practice that continues today. I have DJed Ska Rocksteady and Skinhead reggae for 15 years. The subtles you speak of are correct..but the dancers are the customers and a picky crowd. And the sound system has been and continues to be the propeller to is;and music of any kind.

[TxTFamGuy1]

@workingclass75 Do you still DJ? Are you interested in selling any vinyl?

[hitomusic]

Check out how B.Marley & Wailers re-record this in their album "Burnin".

[HenryTroy715LXIX]

thats noy Bob Marley dumb-ass

[Sepers12]

@HenryTroy715LXIX who is it?

[1a9f0c3]

@HenryTroy715LXIX

That is Bob dumb-ass, its on the Songs Of Freedom box set and isn't that rare either.

[Catch22ish]

@1a9f0c3 now that it's on youtube Blah!

[TxTFamGuy1]

@HenryTroy715LXIX @HenryTroy715LXIX hey retard The Wailers were a VOCAL HARMONY TRIO just like Toots and The Maytals. All they do is sing and Bob Marley is not the only one singing, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer are also singing and without them these song wouldnt have sounded the same. It was not until 1974 when Tosh and Wailer left the group to do solo acts that the group became Bob Marley And The Wailers. I cannot belive how many Marley fans out there know NOTHING about the mans history.

[TheRealMaaqee]

@TxTFamGuy1 it is quite sickening , they only know his more famous songs , most of them didnt even kno he made ska music ...

[Sepers12]

what CD is this version on?

[SHAKEITSHAKETHATBEAR]

@Sepers12

I've 'eard the "Songs of Freedom" album

[TxTFamGuy1]

@Sepers12 The Album is called The Wailing Wailers on the Sudio One label.

[hitomusic]

The tempo is FAST Ska. Beautiful. The background vocals is fabulous - the intro is

incredible. Steady, fast ska. B. Marley's high-wire vocal vibe is so tantalizing.

[HAZEitup1]

[lolrotoboy]

Who is the lead singer, Bunny? we can hear Bob at the end. Incredible ska version.

[Purushadasa]

No, Bob is singing lead, but the others are harmonizing with him.

[lolrotoboy]

No, I mean the lead singer who start at 0'23". This is not Bob. Bob enters only at 2'40".

[Purushadasa]

Yes, that is definitely Bob at 0.23. He was very young.

[stylesmarino2]
