Alpha Blondy - jerusalem

a classic!!

Greetings,

The Wailers also backed up Israel Vibration's second album, "Unconquered People". They backed up Burning Spear on "Hail Him". They backed up Joe Higgs on "Blackman Know Yourself".

Here's a website for Olive Grant (aka Senya, aka Ta-Teasha Love) that was set up before she passed away:

Respect!

bill hutchinson as well as larry marshall on a couple of his 7" productions too.

thanx for the inputs. Indeed they appear with loads of musicians but full albums are rarer.
Anyone knows how they chose the obscure singers they backed (Lulu, Jahmel, Iya Karna, etc.), were they friends ?
Any info about those singers ?

A nice tune is a 7" by Leroy Smart - Happiness Is My Desire - backed by The Wailers.

there is a japanese by the name joe yamanaka who recorded right after bob 's death.it must have been around the same time asjustin hinds"travel with love" and lulu and donald's album.i haven't come across tis joe yamanaka and the wailers album since 1990.

Peter Broggs' "International Farmer" off of "Rise and Shine" is backed by the Wailers.

Here's a little tribute I did a few years ago:
