Peter Tosh "The Murray Elias Interview" (Complete)

[@SquillyMon]

Peter held true to himself and what was right. When you find difficulty in life...and you are true to yourself...you are probably on the right path. Peter wouldn't bend to anyone...he is An Absolute HERO in my eyes

[@deadlydevinedynasty]

Been looking for this interview for so long

[@bobelle1274]

One of his best interviews in my opinion, he speaks so freely about the Wailers and the split. You can tell he was so eager to release his own music, first album and speak his truth. I love listening to his interviews, his so articulate, inspiring and passionate in what he believes in. Didn't suffer fools gladly and spoke the unspeakable.

[@shirleyarcher2944]

Peter Tosh was rebellious while exposing positive truths in his songs of freedom.....

[@glendoncodling1012]

RASTA REGGAE MUSIC started to play when prime Minister Michael manly came to power. PETER TOSH music used to play on the radio daily. I can clearly remember the moments.

[@SoNoFTheMoSt]

hes so right him and bunny were the 2 best backing vocalists ever, go check the live stir it up and concrete jungle live versions bbc old grey whistle test, they are both so on point its nuts

[@tracyanne3395]

bang on mr green , check 400 years... but in the early days there were many groups with wicked backing vocals, check the Abyssinian and many more, check steel pulse, god bless peter tosh

[@SoNoFTheMoSt]

i was on board till you said steel pulse :}

[@zandazanda2512]

+Rob Green I agree and you hit the nail on its head bang on. When I first heard 'stir it up', for example, the first thing that grabbed my attention was the back up vocals, the harmonies..... it was like out of this world. On the two albums, they really did a splendid job with the harmonies. I was about 12 years at the time but was well into conscious music, being around quality music and quality equipment so I was able to hear every chord and every word.

[@SquillyMon]

+Rob Green You just named my two most fav songs from almost any performance... That Old Grey Whistle test was SEEERIAAAS.... Great Vershan "On Point its Nuts" is just about right my man!!!

glad you agree my brother :)

Peter Tosh the true legend of reggae Music and the real king

[@kathyyoung9539]

I love Peter Tosh! He was my Everyting.

[@3aw77]

Tosh had written many of the Wailers' hit songs Peter was very humble and a great Songwriter at that " he touched a lot of people and had a global audience. What a loud of bullshit dem radio station don't play the music bcoz all over America Australia New zealand Canada Italy Spain France dem all smoke it ...

[@israelkanu8299]

It was not true that Peter wrote most of the wailers hit songs. Bunny Wailer too said that he was the main man behind harmonizing the wailers songs so who is to believe

[@israelkanu8299]

In addition to this, Bob started recording before he met with Peter. For me after listening to many sources, I came to the conclusion that among the three of them. It was Peter who never recognized Bob talent. He gave his followers the impression that it was he who made Bob who he is. That's completely false

[@israelkanu8299]

For me all three of them are talented in their own right

[@israelkanu8299]

Where was Peter when Bob wrote Judge Not. One more thing it was Bunny who wrote Funeral but Peter was the first to record it. I want everyone to take note of their writing styles. Bob and Peter writing styles are completely different. There is no way Peter can conceived me that it was him that wrote most of the wailers songs that's completely false. Peter Tosh took all the credit for himself but he never complement other musicians who also contributed immensely in the development of his own music. I'm asking people to carefully examine Peter's actions. What I noticed from him any phrase that Bob used Peter will used it. Peter always critised Bob's works while Bunny Wailers complement Bob's works.

Peter is the best. You must also watch - Peter Tosh betrayed by Santa davis

[@Amaryahu]

It's funny how white folk love Bob Marley, but as soon as you mention Peter Tosh, they like "oh hell no". But, they shared the same ideas...lol

[@rasheedjah2807]

the white man has tried to misinterpret Bob music to fit into their society. So the tried to water down his music by only feeding the would songs that could be interpreted as a message of peace and love to all. However, Bob did stand firm in his beliefs and fights for the Blackman Redemption. his album "Survival" is a great example of that. He was also very vocal in interviews about how he felt about being a black man and his oppressors the white man. I feel that He never tried to hide how he felt but Instead feed his messages to black man in a clever way.

[@Amaryahu]

Rasheed Jah Im definitely in agreement with you, sir. Blessings to you and yours!!!

marley was a mic hog on the real

[@ebibomodi4259]

This man was obviously envious of Bob Marley's success. Didn't hide it in this interview. Well the fact is Bob was more universally accepted than him. A greater artist than him. Yes he's very talented but not a gracious soul

[@KingMellow11]

Not true. Peter always loved and respected Bob. But Peter was a team player. When Chris Whiteworst (Chris Blackwell) pushed Bob Marley up front, that was the problem.

[@jonathanclary3992]

​@@KingMellow11 Yup Plus both Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer quit the Wailers to pursue Solo Careers and they did especially Peter when he had Released his first Album Legalize it in 76 however it was banned from Jamaican radio.

[@fredvan6043]

@@KingMellow11 That's just nonsense. Bob was already the group's front man long before they joined Island records. And Peter left the group because he wanted to be in the spotlight himself - so you can hardly call him a team player...

[@runningrasta]

no jealousy...he just wasn't blind to what was happening around him...
