Radiation Roots

Nesta Robert "Bob" Marley was a Jamaican singer-songwriter and musician. He fronted The Wailers (1963-1974) and Bob Marley &amp; The Wailers (1974–1981), becoming the most widely known performer of reggae music. Marley's music gave voice to the political and cultural issues of Jamaica, spreading both Jamaican music and the Rastafari movement worldwide.Marley's best-known hits include "I Shot the Sheriff", "No Woman, No Cry", "Could You Be Loved", "Stir It Up", "Get Up Stand Up", "Jamming", "Redemption Song", "One Love" and, "Three Little Birds". His compilation album Legend (1984) is reggae's best-selling album, selling 25 million copies worldwide.

Back In Stock

Easily one of the greatest roots reggae albums of all time, Soul Rebels resulted from the intensive partnership brokered by the group and maverick producer, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry. It was the first Wailers ‘concept’ album, conceived as a long-player based on a rebellious theme, rather than a collection of isolated singles, and the presence of the Barrett Brothers in the rhythm section pointed the way for greater glories to come. The Wailers first formed as an unruly 5-piece in 1963, with Junior Braithwaite as lead singer and Beverley Kelso an early member, sometimes replaced by Cherry Green. During their long tenure at Studio One, Bob Marley gradually shifted to the lead vocal role and the robust core of Marley, Peter Tosh and Neville Livingston, aka Bunny Wailer, soon emerged as the mainstays of the group. Perry was involved with the Wailers at Studio One, using their talents for backing vocals on some of his solo work, but the partnership that yielded Soul Rebels was in an entirely different league. The title track, Tosh’s anguished 400 Years and Corner Stone are legendary for their intense power; It’s Alright set the template for the later Night Shift, My Cup was an individual barebones reading of James Brown’s I Guess I’ll Have To Cry Cry Cry, while the playful Try Me and No Water are suggestive odes. Tosh’s dejected No Sympathy and the spirited Soul Almighty are other winners and the Cloud 9 revamp Rebel’s Hop is another joy. All killer, no filler!
