Bob Marley - a Reggae Legend

Bob Marley was born 6 February 1945 in a small village called Nine Miles in the parish of St. Ann, Jamaica. His father was a white British Naval Officer named Norval Marley. His mothers name was Cedella. His father did not live with the family, he just visited them occasionally.
Bob Marley released his first record at the age of 16 in Kingston. It was a song called 'Judge Not'. In 1963 a band named Wailers were formed, the line-up being Bob Marley, Bunny Livingstone, and Peter Tosh. Their first song 'Simmer Down' was an instant number one in Jamaica.
In 1972 Chris Blackwell signed the Wailers to his 'Island' label, and gave those 8000 to produce a record. The result - 'Catch a Fire', released in 1973 - was a breakthrough album. They appeared on television everywhere. The touring schedule proved too much for Bunny and he announced his intention to quit the Wailers.
