do u think sly n robbie would of been better than the wailers ? do u think bob marley would of had a better sound ? u think bob marley would of had the same success as when he did with the wailers ?

i honestly think that sly n robbie would of been a better backing band ? due to their existance they have been putting it down and still going strong just like roots radics.


imagine bob marley with roots radics ? dam heavy crucial sound ?

There is a dreadful 1995 Sly & Robbie 12" remix of *Keep On Moving* (Tuff Gong/Island).

Bunny Wailer recorded some thrillers with Roots Radics on his *Rock And Groove* LP.

I don't know,I don't think it would have been better, I love the peter tosh albums with sly and robbie like my children, but most of the things I don't like about them were sly and robbie's ideas, i think since bob is more accessible than peter they would have really pushed him to be more commercial.

I could be wrong, I don't have a feeling we'll be sure of that though
