Bob Marley - War cover

Post by Yuriferr »

Hey,

I've been looking all over the internet for a cover of Bob Marley, but i can't find the song ID.
You can hear it at this aftermovie around 11:50.

Anybody who can help me out?

Thanks.

Yuri

Maybe someone who knows the artist at least? Sounds a little like Barrington Levy, but i doubt that's him.

I listened to it. Love this version of "War". The voice sounds kinda familiar, but I can't place it. Have you considered writing an email to King Shiloh Sound System?

Yeah, i agree. This version sounds very powerfull with that heavy bassline.
I wrote a message at their facebook page but they didn't gave me an answer unfortunately.

Got him! I wrote an email and got this as a reply.

It's a 7" plate of "War". from Anthoney Ray Ray.

I'm personally quite fond of Winston »Killerman« Jarrett's cut.

It's too bad that the 7" version can't be find at the internet. At least, i couldn't find it.
