Description
Bob Marley's life story is one of intense bonds, vibrant creativity and tumultuous relationships. This oral history, forty years in the making, brings together seventy-five friends, business managers, relatives and confidants to tell the full story of how a boy from Kingston, Jamaica became a cultural icon. From his teenage friendships with Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer to his early sessions with the original Wailers, these interviews reveal dramatic, little-known stories behind some of Marley's most beloved songs. They also recount the tumultuous relationships he had with Rita Marley and Cindy Breakspeare, as well as his rise to international fame in London and his triumphant visit to Zimbabwe. This book offers an unprecedented glimpse into Marley's life, including his harrowing assassination attempt at 56 Hope Road in Kingston, which led to a defiant performance two nights later with a bullet lodged in his arm.
