[@DouglasWatts]

Peter Tosh is the original bad ass. This is how he started his concert. It's not even a song. It's a threat.

[@calvinpinney]

Peter tosh wasn't commercially accepted like Marley but in my opinion he was just as good or even better!

[@clairebear6159]

Agreed

[@liecrusher3506]

Absolutely.

[@SeaDawgOST]

Better!

[@robelmekonnen1564]

Agree. Peter taught Bob how to play the guitar.

[@ngwanindi]

C P your line of reasoning suits mind.

[@violetbrown9256]

I don't care if he was not commercially accepted or not he sang about every issue that we the poor goes through

[@Donna230]

Thanks, I love Peter Tosh.

Un CAPOLAVORO ASSOLUTO ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@annetteybarra6969]

It seems that most everyone commenting has in the past listened to both Peter n Bob. I have for sure. If someone was to ask me who I liked better....I could not pick. Each singer/artist/writer/musician etc. In reggae music is my favorite at the precise moment I am listening to them. I do not compare them...i just listen. Enjoy the music.. enjoy the artist...enjoy yourself!

[@otonomi1]

Peter tosh n ah Bob Marley were powerful like martin Luther king!

[@korshiesena2906]

Greeting, Greetings and respects still

[@gerardomorel8586]

I think Marley was ahead because his voice was magnificent! And peter's voice was suitable to accompany Bob's, that's it! none of them was better than the other, they are the greatest artist of reggae and The wailers is my favourite band since i was 8!! i'm 20 now and the feeling hasn't disappeared!! Greetings from Argentina!

[@ikejesurun2617]

[@ngwanindi]

my opinion is Peter is so unique and my best . his way of making music is so diverse Bob had a stupid useless kinda way Bob to me is trash. Peter tosh is the best my opinion. love you Peter tosh my all time.

[@joashjoshua]

set them free in 2024

[@mrbb2768]

Peter the ruler. We love all mankind. We love all players of instruments. They all had different ways of making and delivering the word of the most high. Like the disciples or apostles they all had different backgrounds different ways of out reach. We giv thanks to all. We only wanted them to mature much more before thier untimely death.

[@joaomendes88]

trhu the great mistics of tomorrow, a seed passed on time.. a Tosh may he long live, best luck to you Andrew

Louco d++💨💨muito bom

[@soljah2062]

onlyjoetee, I agree with much of what you say. Bob had a special charisma that enabled him to reach out to people that other singers haven't got. However, and I guess this is a matter of opinion, but in my view Peter was a better musician and certainly a better singer. In fact I'd say artists like Peter, Toots Hibbert, Ken Boothe, Nicky Thomas and John Holt were better singers. Anyway, let's just be thankful that Jah gave us Peter & Bob.

[@pedromiguelcecilioharrigan6455]

Tosh ymarleey lo ms grande ser Regae

[@someonesson5928]

The only problem with Peter Tosh was being stiff. He could not engage with the crowd as much as Bob Marley could. Either than that - Peter was the Best especially with him being the core contributor towrds many of well known *"The Wailers"* songs!

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy it doesnt matter how many instruments you play,its EXACTLY the same chords on all of em..

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy when Peter Tosh stands before the leaders,he lights a spliff and curse them,when Marley stands before the leaders,he tells them of love,and brings them onstage to hold hands for unity in the name of love,and even thunder and lightning flashed.See the difference?more creative,more powerful,greater,THIS is why he doesn get beat or go to jail,THIS is why he is promoted ahead of the rest,do you see???

[@Cypeadelic1]

[@NenadNS3]

BlackNotesZone Yes, you're totally right. At the time I was writing that comment I wasn't aware enough of what Tosh had been fighting for thru his life, but now I am. But I still don't like too much exposing of herb... However, thanks for reply. All the best

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy Tosh left because he had to go do his own thing,it was time to develop his own talent.His touch up role was done much better after him by the 3 girls.The core of the Wailers was Bob and the Barrett brothers,thats reggaes greatest combination,Bob and that AMAZING drummer and bass player,Marley was VERY lucky to find them.Anyone else was dispensible quite frankly.Bob,Family man and Carly was the main thing..

[@ternak001]

@sonicsrasta I disagree, I think songs about how man should love each other have greater impact. But I totally love Tosh's message. Besides, why are we fighting between the differences of Marley and Tosh even though it is just our own opinion of what we think of their music. So one love, stop bickering, love all.

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy more "elements" does not mean your music is better.Marley could turn up with just himself and an acoustic guitar sit down,sing redemption song and blow you away completely with the sheer power of it.THATS greatness.

[@ShaunNugent-bp6hl]

🎉🎉🎉🎉brits out

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy yes,and you think the establishment were shaking in their boots because of Peter Tosh?please...

YEA MON tat bass go hard

[@freddwreck]

peter tosh is like the og of that rasta shit

[@jabatarful]

both have been influenced and inspired one by the other... this say, i must recognize that the two of them are very impressiv, one complete the other, but i must admitt that Bob Marley is somewhere uplevel.

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy where was jimmy cliff when Bob was writting Burning?Catch a fire?Exodus?Uprising?Confrontation?Natty Dread?Survival?Rastaman Vibration?Kaya? etc please man...

[@maredicorsica]

Dont think this matter can be resolved on a black vs white; we are facing a reality much more complex in which both of them deserves the highest ranks in terms of expression and communicating skills

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy its the power of the song,that captivates.Bob Dylan could stand on stage by himself with just an acoustic guitar and captivate an entire stadium!!!!its the songs!!and Marley had the greater more powerful songs,from the very first album onwards,by FAR!!

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy look at the chords that Marley used for i shot the sheriff,google it right now,you will realize what a truly brilliant musician he was technically.and this was from THE FIRST album,this is young early Bob Marley,with no help from anyone,knowing chords LIKE THAT!!most early writers would use basic chords Marley uses Gm/Cm7/Ebmaj7/Dm7..for him to even KNOW chords like that at that stage was incredible!!never mind the bridge even!!

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy There are different levels in life in everything,average,mediocre,good and great,and you know it when you see it.in art,sport,music everything.peter tosh bunny wailer etc were good,bob marley was great and they knew it, they themselves KNEW it!!the world knew it,and i say this with the greatest respect as big peter tosh fan myself,because its the truth,if you look at both their creative output,you will see this CLEARLY,one was ahead of the other,overall,they were not on the same level

[@BlackNotesZone]

Your comment shows that you don't completely understand Tosh. His smoking herb on stage does not reflect him being any less committed to his craft than Marley. To Tosh, herb was a part of who he was, and was a spiritual thing that fueled the spirit of his performances, his writing, his religion, his life. You can agree or disagree with his choices, but you shouldn't equate that with his commitment. And the quality of the music he and his band presented on stage was as tight as anyone's.

[@JAHGUIDANCEFORI]

No suger coating burn Babylon with them tricks

[@jhendrix7911]

listen to that bass line

[@freddwreck]

BUDDY STRAIGHTEN OUT

[@sonicsrasta]

Blackwell pushed Marley ahead because he looked white. Blackwell knew it would be easier to sell his records in America than Tosh's records. Let's just say Marley fit the description a lot more than Peter. Plain in simple. Luckily when the Stones saw Peter and Bob, they were blown away (not by Bob but by Peter). That's why they signed him. I'll go with the musical chops of the Stones any day over some of the posters below....

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy Peter Tosh had good songs,Bob Marley had great songs see,Tosh was good,but Marley was great,thats the difference.Go listen to all their albums again together,side by side,you'll realize this...

[@stevieinskeep]

mpires is coming to an end ARE YOU READY

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy man,listen to babylon queendom,them directly afterwards listen to The Heathen, NO CONTSEST MAN!!!!NONE!!!!thats the difference between Good and Great..see!!!

[@sonicsrasta]

Marley had full weight of a label and an American PR team - Tosh didn't - Marley's look/ feel was much more accessible than Tosh's. That's it - plain and simple. Marley wrote about "One Love" while Peter wrote "there will be no peace until man has equal rights and justice." Until the day i die, i believe Tosh's passion, spirit and lyrics will have a longer lasting impact on culture/music - songs like Burial, 400 Yrs and Equal Rights will always trump Marley's "One Love" and "Stir it Up"

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy im not talking about record companies or sales,im talking about composition and creativity,go listen to redemption song,rat race,buffalo soldier,i shot the sherrif,exodus,burning and lootin,the heathen,rastaman chant,natural mystic,crazb baldheads,zion train,etc,study the chords the arrangement,for someone who was barely educated Marleys vocabulary was incredible.Peter Tosh is good,but he's not on his level,not as prolific,creative or powerful,there is a difference between good& great

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy i dont care who was beat shot or went to jail,what has that got to do with your creative talent?

[@violetbrown9256]

He was fighting for the under privilege & poor people to let us know we had a constitution right ✅

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy and you think what Tosh said stopped the political violence?it just brought more violence,even to himself,what Marley did actually shamed the politicians,it was like Christ on the cross between the 2 thieves,he made them realize themselves man,it was epic,even thunder and lighning was flashing in the sky..He was greater period!!

[@pecemk69]

@brainuseitorlooseit ...i know man isnt amezing i wish people would make more music like this but havent heard anything like it yet ill try to do it im a drummer PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERY ONE

[@nexttvmarketing]

@zxingzxing RIGHT!!!

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy continued to make what music?which songs?Bob Marley had to make the songs for them to harminize to.Peter tosh said it himself "my job in the wailers was to decorate Marleys music"thats a direct quote,and thats what he didThe word dynamic,means a potent force,If Peter Tosh was more of a potent force than Bob marley,he would have stood ahead of him,simple,the greater in any situation or team ALWAYS rises ahead of the rest naturally!!!

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy Bob marley was a Rhythm guitarist,which is all you need to be to write songs, Cmajor and A minor are the same if you can play in on one instrument or a thousand instruments.unless you have a song,it doesnt matter how many damn instruments you play.and Marley had the songs..get it??

[@NenadNS3]

I maybe like Marley more than Tosh, but Tosh had an enormous impact on reggae as well as Marley. But what i don't like when it comes to Tosh is for example this performance. He performed fantastic as well as his band, but he was smoking weed on the stage, what you cant say for Marley. You wouldnt never see Marley smoking on stage, he was completely commited to what he was doing. That is important difference

[@hotwalker5018]

Tosh is the man razor sharpe

[@toguhx]

@sonicsrasta come on man, why compare the two? both were wailers. thats it.

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy in every walk of life,the greater will stand before the rest,bands are no different.regardless of Chris Blackwell or anyone,Marley would have stood ahead of tosh,bunny etc because musically he was greater than them,no doubt.They were equal as people,but musically Marley was ahead of them,no question..

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy Jimmy cliff helped marley write what?There are people who showed me things about the guitar when i started playing,who are not even one tenth as talented as i am!!!!

[@jefersonvilaede]

@sonicsrasta ok, but lets not compare one person with another. Both have something to say, focus on that. I know you know this. Safe brotha

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy look at the first Wailers album Burning,now look at the Bob Marley songs Burning & lootin,I shot the sherrif,small axe,duppy conqeror,rastaman chant,Put it on,then look at Peter Tosh's song One foundation.immediately you realize one of these people is a bit greater than the other.hahahahahaha

[@djibinlokoydjo2553]

Before the record of burnin album the wailers, peter tosh made all arranged and composed all Marley songs...Peter teached Marley to play guitar and art of good music

[@carlacarla918]

Legal aid piter you onra vc . Vc vai ver

[@KingMellow11]

@onlyjoetee I can't say that.

[@stevieinskeep]

400 years of brutal and bloodthirsty rule by the vampires is coming to and ignonimous end ARE YOU READY

[@ternak001]

I would disagree. I think Marley's song will have longer lasting impact. Tosh's songs are only about the present of which he was living in. Let's say everyone has equal rights now, ok. now what is the significance of that song? Whereas, everyone can always say One Love. Honestly you guys are just trying to find the differences in Marley and Tosh even though they both wanted the same thing. I think this is pointless bickering, it's an argument that will never be won.

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboyPeter Tosh was good,but Bob Marley is was and will always be greater than him,and not just in sales,in actual creativity.AND YOU KNOW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the world knows it!!!!!!!!

[@jefersonvilaede]

shut the noise about "trumping". i hear what u say, but they both good in their ways, we know the media and people prefer some over others and we know why, but they both good. dont b a baldhead

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy When God gives talent he never gives it equally,someone is always greater than someone.Its like the jackson 5,they were all good,but Michael was greater than them.not because of record company or promotion etc he was born greater than them.Same with the wailers,bunny and peter were good,but Bob was greater than them.the world knows it,they knew it themself!they were not on the same level!!!its like sports,you are in a team with Michael Jordan you may be good,but,he's greater than them

[@carlacarla918]

Eu voce o piter is e o yellow pop eo king stock

[@onlyjoetee]

@nesianboy They may have been family,but they were NOT equals,and that is a fact!Michael Jacson and his brothers were family,but they were not his equals creatively!God never ever gives talent and ability in equal measure even in families,somebody is always greater than somebody.Keep your opinion if you want,but this is the truth and you know it.so does the world!!
