Rogue Reggae-Bob Marley and Peter Tosh-Saturday Nite Nostalgia
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted an edition of nostalgia. Not really sure why, perhaps I’m getting lazy. Summer does that to one.
After what happened to Brunaud Moise earlier this week, getting banned at Laronde, a ‘family values’ Six Flags owned amusement park in Montreal, for sporting a Bob Marley t-shirt emblazoned with green marijuana leaves, I thought I would put on some Bob Marley videos, as well as Peter Tosh’s “Legalize It”. The latter for Joey Elias having the idea of perhaps sporting such a t-shirt and attempting to get into Laronde with the tech producer, Mike Babins. I hope they do take the trip over to Laronde and provide feedback on how it went. It would be more telling if what happened to Mr Moise was really racially motivated.
Also, summer is drawing to a close. Reggae for some seems to keep summer in the minds of folks.
I’m too lazy to come up with trivia stories about them or find quotes this fine evening. They deserve better, I know. If you want to know more about Bob Marley and/or Peter Tosh, click those links.
Enjoy!
I thought the first video would be appropriate for us in this day and age, not only for Brunaud Moise, but also for us.
“Exodus” from Santa Barbara, 1979
Bob with no dreadlocks; “Stir It Up”
Now, of course, “Legalize It” from Peter Tosh; An accoustic version.
