I used to have a tape with a bob marley track that i simply cannot locate anywhere.

I don't know the title, but the chorus went something like:

"In this festival, right now.... inna this festivity..."

One of the verses spoke of "Malcolm and Martin were two great men, of much conviction..."

The chorus had horn sections and overall it is a lovely tune.

If anyone can help with the title i'd appreciate it.

are you sure, that this is bob marley? never heard about this one!!!!!!

ites deh
could be Winston Mcnuff -malcolm x? this is a great tune
never heard dat from Bob

Yeah... mos def.. it was bob... I was thinkin that the title had suttin to do with 'festival' or 'festivity' as this is what he repeated in the chorus...

I've been collecting unreleased Bob for several years, and I'm sure no tune matches that description.

Are you sure it's not Jacob Miller?

or Albert Griffiths (from the Gladiators)?

Bro, I guess youre speakin about the tune of Carlton Coffie called "World Festivity" that is commonly compared to the wailers'style.

Start with "Release yourself!"
I remember those words at the end of the tune...

"Garvey and Martin, you know who I mean, were two great leaders with such convictions..."

"You gotta lively up yourself"

i need help. i am hearing lots about the unreleased music of bob but when i ask about them or try to get copies from people i just get the door shut in my face/cold shoulder job all i want is what all wailers fans alike want & that is to hear bobs music i buy all of the stuff that i can but as you all know the rare material is like gold dust can/will any one with a kind heart help me in my search after all no one person/s should hold onto gems that we all want to hear
