No matter from which you approach Reggae Music,
sooner or later you will be confronted with Bob
Marley and/or the Wailers, if they have not
introduced you to Reggae Music in the first place.
Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer formed
the original Wailing Wailers back in the 1960's,
and they started to record material for Sir
Coxsone Dodd's Studio One an Lee Perry's Black Ark
to name just two studio's.
Along the way, the Wailing Wailers became Bob
Marley & the Wailers and large portions of the
planet were introduced to Reggae Music in a
special way. The rest of the story can be
considered too well known to be told in this
review, which goes for this Podcast as well.
The Wailers Record Shack Chapter One is a well organized
selection by the Dub Organiser. A large portion is
reserved for Tuff Gong productions, Bob Marley's
own Studio named after one of the names he
carried. Peter Tosh's own Intel Diplo Label isn't
forgotten, either.
However, the most interesting stuff comes in
the second part of the show, when it's time for
some Bunny Wailer productions from his Solomonic
Label. Most interesting, as the unmistakable sound
of Solomonic is disgracefully under-rated by a lot
of Reggae connoisseurs, selectors and collectors.
So big up once more to the Dub Organiser!
