Indeed Africa remembers you Soldier.... Your music liberated us...In South Africa your music makes vibrations all over.... Long live Peter Tosh Long Live.... He lives right here in Africa ✊❤️💚💛
Sly and Robbie were there, El Chino was there... These were among the best if not the best reggae musicians you could get! "The rich man's heaven is the poor man's hell". Committed to justice as ever, Peter was not playing music, he was writing history. Best version of "Burial" I know, and Jah knows have listened to some of them...
I can’t believe I’ve been watching this video for nine years… Back before phones even had RU-vid, I downloaded “youtube2video” and manually transferred this song onto my phone. Peter Tosh, Ranking Toyan, Yellowman, Bob Marley, Big Youth, Freddie McGreggor, etc. I had all these guys and more on my phone when I used to work overnight at Disney when I was by myself. Some of the best moments of my life.
My wife Rebecca Rodriguez we remember 1986 the tragic death we love and respect you and miss you we are sending our respect all the way from Coachella,California 52 VNC
Summer of 1978. My girlfriend, my best friend and extraordinary lead guitar player,; another best friend, guitar player an excellent singer, and my younger brother, went to see the Rolling Stones at the Big A...Angel Stadium in Anaheim for the Rolling Stones and their Some Girls Tour. We were right in front of the stage in left center field. 10 rows back, standing room only. Unforgettable lifetime experience! The late great Etta James opened the show. "At last...Love." Then came Peter Tosh, with Sly Dunbar and a rolly-polly Robbie Shakespeare on bass, wear Oshkosh-Bygosh overalls. Wow!
(continued) The song I loved most, was "Burial". And Legalize it, and Get Up, Stand Up...stand up for your rights. And then there was desert....the Stones played most of their Some Girls album....Miss you, So respectable, Before they Make me Run (Keef!), The Girl with Faraway eyes, and their classic songs as well. But I can still see Peter Tosh singing Burial, with big jolly Robbie Shakespeare bouncing on the stage, to get the 59,000 plus up, pounding his bass. i can still see it in my mind's treasury bank. Peace, love and hope this New Year;s Eve, 12-31-2018.
Since it was a Stones concert you felt save not like the guy at 2:36 bottom right But hey the message still rings true 100 per ¢ yes I and sane! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v4DmJ41KuIQ.html
This man have the best lyrics and smooth raspy voice for his music... Legend among the legends for reggae music.... RIP to him and Bob Marley, may they have ever lasting peace and friendship with each other... Jah Rastafari!!!!
I keep coming back to this. I first heard this when I was around 14 years old and was so touched by it. I have always been obsessed with reggae and dancehall music, even though I’m just some random German-Canadian girl who grew up in Switzerland. But this is one of those songs that brings tears to my eyes and just touches me deep down, not only the lyrics - which I dont think I originally really grasped and am still trying to fully decipher to be honest - but the melody is just something else. Especially this version. There’s something about this melody that just grabs me deep down by the soul. I cannot listen to this without tearing up. Absolutely phenomenal.
I know how you feel even though i was introduced to this song when I was 14 also. It was his Super Hits CD and It changed my life. I've been into this version since 2008 and It never gets old and still give me a feeling of transcende and belonging of a heavenly place That I used to be. About the meaning of this song all I can say is about rasta principles that impede them to go to funerals in order to never Deal to anything about death. But we are lucky to be in the vibe that this song, especially this version, brings.
This Productions runs through my blood and heats my blood, i love Peter's giftedness, his voice goes with it all the way, he hypnotizes me too much in this song.
"They would even rob the blind",rich mans heaven is a poor mans hell".these quotes are from a man who saw the future and is one of my favorite people to listen too when i need truth in my life
If he has to be best then what stopped him from being the best. You teach me how to read I read more than you oh Carolina.Peter was good but he was not broad enough. Bob was broad and extraordinary.
@@umoramiogini9668 Apprends à jouer la musique puis composer là tu comprendras...Peter est le maître de Bob et il lui a arrangé toutes ses chansons qu'il n'a fait que reprendre et ré enregistrer encore et encore plus tard etc...Learn to play instruments and music afther you can understand Who Was Peter musician...To read is not playing, inspiration or composition. ..
History goes like this Bob was a half white man Peter was a real black Congo natty at that time blackwell and they British wasn't ready for the real thing so Bob split and that's one of the reason why until now a lot of jamaican respect bob but don't really love him
One of the greatest musician, singer, and Black brother's on the planet. They will listen to you now finally. Prophet Peter is what every artist should be. We praise Haile Selassie I the Almighty. Blackman time is now. Because JAH time is now. Selah
Look at the crowd good example why not to ever stay one place explore other places where people will appreciate and respect you. Spread/express your talent with no fear people.
You had been photographed with me in backstage by my french friend ginger veronike razavet during your free concert in the Air summer 1982 in nice city France .
As much as I appreciated Bob Marley's contribution to music and life. I often felt, because of his popularity abroad - fine, natural, Jamaican singers, musicians, were overlooked and sidelined. Whenever I heard people praising Bob Marley, I would think to myself, "what about Peter Tosh, Bunny Livingston, Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare, Lee Perry, The Heptones, The Abyssinians, The Melodians, Bob Andy, Pat Kelly, Alton Ellis, Lorna Bennett, Errol Dunkley, John Holt, Ginger Williams, Niney the Observer, Dennis Brown, Marcia Griffiths, Barry Biggs and all the reggae greats from the UK and abroad. So many greats came out of Jamaica, or had Jamaican heritage, and I'm speaking as a Vincentian.
