Did you know his son played linebacker for the University of Miami. Damn good player too.

Bob is and always will be one of the greatest music legends of all time. Jah jah taking care of him now

Reggae it's mostly for douchebags ...

and your point is......?

Thats how GFY gets better -> sharing the feeling and memory of great people!
And Reggae is good, i still think its the best chilling tempo.

He doesnt think just act in contradiciton. But he doesnt have a Troll Award by Chosen yet, does he?

religion killed him apparently. what a waste.

Here's one of my favorite songs. A true legend - may his spirit live forever.

The stupidity is pure in this one...

xcllnt choice! hope all is well in your neck of the woods eh :thumbsup

dont think I had a camera with me at the time and probably would'nt have done any good with the flash cubes :rainfro :rasta :stoned

RIP Bob, one of the very best ever!

"You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there."
? Bob Marley

RIP Bob Marley. He died from lung cancer. He was singing many impressive songs such as: Buffalo Soldier, Red Red Wine and Sun is Shining.

Bob Marley didn't sing Red Red Wine. That was a Neil Diamond song that was covered by Tony Tribe and most famously by UB-40.

How can you disagree with fatfoo?:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Bob Marley, Neil Diamond easy mistake to make ... lol

This is the 1st Concert I saw him at


His second visit to Toronto was to the U of T’s Convocation Hall, where he did two shows on the evening of May 5, 1976, early in his Rastaman Vibration tour. The tour was memorable for many reasons, not the least of them being that it brought together one of the most dynamic incarnations of the Wailers’ oft-changing lineups, with Earl “Chinna” Smith and Donald Kinsey on guitar, Earl “Wya” Lindo and Tyrone Downie on keyboards, Aston “Family Man” Barrett on bass and Carlton “Carly” Barrett on drums.
A Funny thing about this concert, it was 2 shows, I had tickets to the second one, but it was way delayed, because the audience from the 1st show refused to leave:1orglaugh


and the second time
in support of Kaya, and on June 9/78 he returned to Toronto — but this time it wasn’t to a small, cosy venue. The Wailers were now one of the world’s biggest live attractions, and despite the suspicion that may still have existed among the more conservative elements of Toronto society, their concert had to be at Maple Leaf Gardens

One of the greatest songwriters ever... :thumbsup

My favorite:









It's a shame that he died so young, yet amazing how much excellent music he created during his short life...

RIP Bob Marley

:stoned

Just love the irony. His death proves his profound religious belief, something a douchebag couldn't possibly get.

this is a thread about a deceased musician whose music many people enjoyed, no need to over analyze it or point your finger in a denigrating way at the people who like his music.

your bot is failing..

bob marley did not die from lung cancer.. he got cancer after a toe injury playing soccer
