That is so true.. I don't know what it is but I consider this to be one of Bob's worst songs..
Anyway RIP Vincent.

I echo this... I don't like it at all, or rather NEVER liked it...

NWNC has been voted as one of the top 2 or 3 favourite Bob tunes.
IMHO, good in parts, but too long, especially the chorus.
I have often wondered about Vincent Ford, who was he,
what was his connection to Bob, what did he do, musically, in later years etc.
But he certainly was connected to some classic Wailers tunes.
May he rest easy now with Bob.
