Wailers Formed

The band formed when self-taught musician Hubert Winston McIntosh known as Peter Tosh met Neville Livingston known as Bunny Wailer and Robert Nesta Marley (Bob Marley) in 1963. By late 1963 Junior Braithwaite, Beverly Kelso, and Cherry Smith had joined the Wailers. After Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer left the band in 1974, Bob Marley began touring with new band members. 

Rasta

Bob Marley was a member for some years of the Rastafari Movement whose culture was a key element in the development of reggae. Bob Marley became a passionate proponent of Rastafari, taking their music out of the socially deprived areas of Jamaica and onto the international music scene. He was interviewd once 

Interviewer: "Can you tell the people what it means being a Rastafarian?"
Bob: "I would say to the people, Be still, and know that His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia is the Almighty. Now, the Bible seh so, Babylon newspaper seh so, and I and 

I the children seh so. Yunno? So I don't see how much more reveal our people want. Wha' dem want? a white God, well God come black. True true."^[

^{Personally I don't think he answered the question exactly, he seemed around the bush but not defining what it is to be a Rastafarian. What he did say was in Rastafarians believe a black God will come & that it is emperor of selassie of Ethiopa.}
