ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Bob Marley & The Wailers

The Wailers' 1973 album Burnin' belongs to the roots-reggae partnership of Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer. Natty Dread followed in 1974 under the credit Bob Marley & The Wailers, after Tosh and Bunny Wailer had left to pursue separate careers. That album introduced the I Threes vocal team of Rita Marley, Marcia Griffiths and Judy Mowatt. These changes matter when following the group's recordings: related musicians and similar song titles do not make different lineups or solo releases interchangeable.
