fucking
awesome
man


the good people deserve a more accurate description, though.

I would rate a burning spear concert on how much he played from Marcus Garvey/Garvey's Ghost

Masterwork that is

This was the coolest part of the concert.

Rastafari, have you heard his album Man in the Hills? You know how on the introductory title track, near the end, there are birds chirping and shit like that?

That's Winston. He can make these crazy-ass animal-nature sounds with just his voice. It's glorious. I never knew humans could make those sounds.

He's really... old. And he was probably the highest person in the house.

I think that Burning Spear isn't really as good as the Wailers, but he puts on a much better live show. Well, a better live show than the relatively decimated Wailers I saw a few months back.

awesome man. Thats like P-Funk.
The dude that makes the noise from "Aqua Boogie" is this a big man, its awesome


Where did you see the decimated wailers at, btw. I would kill to see even a remnant of the Wailers but I thought they only did a few shows a year
