Marley's LP

Post by lionel (fr) »

I have 2 questions

1) I ve heard that marley 's kaya album was first recorded with horns on all tracks as "is this love" in the song of freedom set, of course different that the release already knew.

2) marley's confrontation was released after his death and remastered. Is there different mixes of all tracks. ex :" I know " from this album had a different riddim according to an interview with Aston Barrett .

Could someone have some info

Big bout ya

1) I heard/read that too. But I'm really not sure about it.

2) I think that the Marley Bio "Catch a fire" says something like "ill Bob called Familyman from Bavaria and told him to remix that 1976 song and release it on Tuff Gong". So it's quite possible that Familyman and some other Wailers members (or other musicians) "composed" and recorded it new and than add Marleys vocals to it. As you might know, Familyman was the creative head behind most Wailers compositions anyway and he also mixed a lot of stuff for the band.
