Free Music Review: a perfect primer
Hit: 5 Stars

In the pantheon of reggae, as I see it, there is Peter Tosh, and there is everyone else, Bob Marley included.

Tosh wrote or co-wrote several of the original Wailers' most potent songs, including "Get Up Stand Up," "400 Years," "Stop That Train," and "One Foundation," as well as the classic rude boy anthem "I'm the Toughest." Tosh's mix of fiery social commentary with solid Rastafarian beliefs made him a hero to many, and as the fortunes of the Wailers rose, so should have Peter's...

Fate intervened, however, and Bob was chosen as the "leader" of the group as they marched towards international fame reportedly due to his lighter skin tone as opposed to Peter's very dark ebony. Tosh and Bunny Wailer both saw no alternative but to leave the group.

Tosh's solo efforts, such as the classic lp's "Legalize It" and "Equal Rights" made him fans the world over and enemies at home. The brutality that Tosh suffered and put up with in Jamaica, including several near death beatings in prisons, only served to solidify both Tosh's standing in the communities he preached to, as well as his anti-government rhetoric.

This compilation shows well the power that Tosh possessed in his short life, and his razor sharp delivery of the messages he so believed in.

Much of this collection are from his "Legalize It" and "Equal Rights" lps, and both lps are must haves in any reggae fan's collection.

An amazing collection showcasing reggae's true Bush Doctor. As Tosh himself said, "I am a stepping razor, don't u judge my size, I'm DANGEROUS!"

Indeed you were, Peter. Jah be praised.
