1976 Rastaman Vibration Tour, Album History and Comments
Rastaman Vibration, the follow-up album in 1976, cracked the American charts.
It was, for many, the clearest expression yet of Marley's music and beliefs,
including most significantly "War", the lyrics of which were taken from a speech by H.I.M. Haile Selassie I.
"It's not music right now, we're dealing with a message. Right now the music not important, we're dealing with a message.
Rastaman Vibration is more like a dub kinda album and it's come without tampering y'know. Like 'War' or 'Rat Race'
the music don't take you away, it's more to listen to
In 1976 bob was shot in 1976 inside his home. It is generally believed he was shot for political motives, with Jamaican politics being somewhat violent in that era
