The Man Who Caused The Wailers’ Break Up and Why?

[@MudiEzekiel-dr2xd]

I will be hearing their songs till I end up in life. I love them so much even all their songs. Whenever I play their songs, I will feel more comfortable.

[@suleamend696]

One truth about the three guys is, they were all lead singers or vocalists that needs to express themselves individually, so the breakup was divinely orchestrated for their good, we now have Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny wailer separate albums to enjoy, all things work together for good.

I thank you for your opinion on the Wailers breakup. I will however despute many of your opinions. I knew all three (Bunny, Bob, and Peter) and as a young boy lived in Kingston, Jamaica when they roamed Trench town singing with Peter Tosh playing guitar. Complaints to my late father, Roy White(president Of The Jamaican Musician's Union) for Byron Lee's interference with Bob and Peter working on songs for Johnny Nash, among other things. It's over fifty years but I'm still alive and much of what you referred is only half truths and non sense. Lee Perry did rob them from the (music) albums they made with him(correct) Bob, Peter, and Bunny still rehearsed together long after their so called breakup. (After the Catch A Fire and Burning albums and even after Bob Marley and The Wailers 'Natty Dread album, they still performed together- National Stadium(with Third World and The Jacksons)among other places. I could go on and on, however I believe all four participants were to blame for the break up. Briefly Chris Blackwell for pushing and promoting Bob, over the other two. Bunny for his reluctance in flying on a plane and touring overseas. Peter for feeling slighted and not sticking with the Wailers over the advancements in his own career. And most importantly Bob for not trying harder to hold the original Wailers together. R.I.P. Peter Tosh, Bob Marley, and Neville Livingston.

Bob Marley was not as stated in this video , " the most smartest of them all", in reference to Peter and Bunny. In my opinion Bob appears to be more single minded, easier to manipulate, very likely singled out due to his lighter melinated skin tone. Peter and Bunny was more than likely sidelined because of their highly melinated skin tones, and strength of character. Because no one with a musical ear can say Bob was the best singer, writter, musical arranger, musician more than Peter or Bunny, and then for Peter and Bunny to stand up behind Bob, which they did for many years. No way Peter and Bunny are too great to not shine individually. Don’t blame Jah Bunny. ❤💛💚🖤

Bob Marley was not as articulate as Peter Tosh, not even nearly. People who never lived in Jamaica during those years will never understand the phenomena of these three musicians. Bob is no greater than either of the other two in no way whatsoever. Bunny Wailer has produced three albums which can easily be claimed the best ever Reggae album ever, "Blackheart Man," "Rock & Groove" & "Liberation." That breakup was the best thing that could have happened for all three of them because they were able to express themselves in their individual way. Peter Tosh was the first artiste anywhere in the world to tackle the issue of apartheid in song with the track aptly entitled "Apartheid" on the "Equal Rights" album, another album which could be the bwst Reggaealbum ever produced. The Wailers wete not meant to stay together but the music each of them gave us since will continue to uolift souls all over the world. We should never forget that there were also Beverly Kelso & Junior Brathwaite, those names never seem to be mentioned in any discourse re The Wailers. Guidance.

[@fredvan6043]

Well, "Blackheart man" is definitely ONE of the best reggae albums ever (which can also be said by several BMW records, by the way), but it remains a single shot that Bunny never managed to equal afterwards (although "Rock'n'Groove" is pretty good too, though not ground-breaking). And there definitely were several artists before Tosh who wrote anti-apartheid songs, so probably you should do some reading on the subject in order to get your facts straight... (instead, Tosh' "Apartheid" song was indeed the first one to use the word 'apartheid' in its title, whereas mainly South African artists, facing state oppression and censorship, had to pronounce themselves in more subtle ways)...

A few years ago I reed an article online in a Jewish magazine "Tablet Weekener" the story was about the fact that certain Jews were trying to claim Bob Marley as their own as his father was a Syrian Jew. This lead me to look into the matter and I also discovered that Criss Blackwell's mother was a Spanish Jew.

I, RAS CARDO REGGAE WHO CREATED REGGAE IN TRENCH TOWN SAY THIS TRUTH:-COPELAND FORBES DOES NOT KNOW A DAMN OF WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT. TELL HIM THAT I, RAS CARDO SAID THAT! I/WE WILL CHALLENGE YOU AND ANYONE WHO SEEK TO TELL LIES ON US.COPELAND FORBES WAS NEVER IN TRENCH TOWN WITH ANYONE OF US.

[@spectrumconsulting3229]

YOU LIED!!!! You DIDN’T create REGGAE!!! Please STOP lying!!! FREDERICK "TOOTS" HIBBERT did in 1968 with the song DO THE REGGAY even though he didn’t register it which is less consequential now. You hurriedly registered the copyright in 1990 to deceive people. Also, how did you become a member of the WAILERS BAND? What role of the Wailers did you play and which song or track did you make with them because I have never heard BOB MARLEY, PETER TOSH, or BUNNY WAILER mention your name as one of them, nor have I ever seen your picture or group pictures with any of them? We all know Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Junior Braithwaite, Cherry Smith, Beverley Kelso, Constantine Walker, Aston Barrett, Carlton Barrett, Earl Lindo, Tyrone Downie, Rita Marley, Marcia Griffiths, Judy Mowatt, Al Anderson, Alvin Patterson, and Earl "Chinna" Smith. WHO’S RAS CARDO?

You don't overstand Rasta, all of the brethren views are right. Bob ,Bunny and Peter. You have to overstand white superiority.

[@josephnuttn3600]

To explain everything with black superiority? You need a frontal lobotomy 😂

[@costermasumbuko6653]

The break up was caused by one and a half white men - Chris and Bob

[@josephnuttn3600]

😂bob has never been white or treated white. Wake up. Stop playing the victim

[@booblam6919]

​@@josephnuttn3600corret....Bob said out of his own mouth....my dad is white...but I was born as a RASTAMAN.

[@ellestontaylorsr7310]

Another thing about the 3 guys Bob was the greatest then peter tush bunny waiter was weakest of them

[@josephnuttn3600]

A poser. And sell out. Bunny I mean.

[@paulclayton2460]

Each have their own strength but Peter Tosh could sing in a different varies of vocals really good

[@ellestontaylorsr7310]

Mama Mama them hold papa and if me never 🏃 run them would hold me to

[@Unpolitisch80]

There just the Wailers nothing else. Bob never said something different about it. Just the people around them they started that shit. Just by the way…Shirley Livingston …the sister of Bunny Livingston …died sadly in that car accident.

[@RH421939]

I believe bob was very selfish towards his original band mates but in the end the biggest part of the wailers break up was because you had 3 lead singers in the band that needed to be in the front

[@oleeivindhansen5647]

The the Wailers should have continued like Israel Vibration, where each singer was lead of their own song. On most albums and concerts they exchanged their roles in an equal manner.

[@jeanclarke9106]

I totally agree

[@MsWildberry1]

💯 agree Bob was single minded otherwise he would not have gone along with Blackwell. They grew us as brothers. Bob knew each one of them was individually supremely gifted mucians so all had to shine individually as well as collectively. Selfish yes.

[@dennisisaacs6978]

I was in a same situation I. A youth sound system in London in the early 80s the guy second in charge was very selfish towards his sound team he took all the money the most I got paid once £8 the when the sound broke up he took half the Equipment and say we Robb him and the leader Robb him I say Don't Trust shadow after Dark Becarefull who you joined a band or sound system with

[@MsWildberry1]

@@dennisisaacs6978 And the speaker boxes was so heavy back in the days, and the record boxes too. They could have paid you guys better I use to see the soundmen lifting the heavy boxes. The shobbeans made enough money andbecause a lot of the time there was no rent money to be paid.
