The story goes that Peter Tosh knew that many wanted him dead. "I know I'm wanted because of the evil forces, but still I know there is another counter-force that counteract any evil force the forces of righteousness is a billion times more powerful." And then he took another hit from the peace pipe. Tosh eventually met his doom when murdered in Jamaica in 1987 at the age of 44. Now 20+ years l...

It is a two-DVD, one CD, "multi-pac" with a thirty page booklet of commentary and rare photos that gives the first truly comprehensive look at Peter Tosh as a brilliant musical artist, significant political figure and charismatic and brave, though often misunderstood, human being.

I don't know if it is the election season getting to me or what but I've been in a crazy Peter Tosh zone...Man, he could get outraged...you listen to the first disc on this three disc set and realize just how much so...There are few more righteous tracks than this one, all over the Satta Massaganna rhythm..."Here Comes the JudgeHear ye himGod save the African kingAnyone have anything to say be...

A record best known for the presence of the Glimmer Twins, including a duet with Mick on (You Gotta Walk) Don't Look Back, Bush Doctor is one of Tosh's most accessible but interesting records. We got Mick out of the way. The duet is great, but Keef's riffing on the title track is definitely a highlight of the record. Whereas Mick is turned up in the mix and overpowers Tosh, Keith's searing ove...

Of all the Ex-wailers, Peter Tosh has long been my favorite. His music is _punchier_ than Bob Marley's, with an edge like a stepping razor.Here he takes on Chuck Berry's **Johnny B Goode** with his trademark slow-burn groove. Dig it!

of a song better known in another form. Bunny Wailer's 1978 12" Discomix of "Love Fire" remains one of his best loved records, despite the best efforts of Simply Red to ruin it with a fairly pedestrian cover version. However, the genesis of the song was rather older, being released on HIM Intel Diplo by Peter Tosh with the Wailers( Bob Marley can clearly be heard singing "Come pn you weary soul...

I have always liked Peter Tosh's music. I found it to be a little 'rockier' than a lot of Reggae music. Like Bob Marley, his music is imbued with a smoldering sense of anger at social injustice, and the emptiness of the spirit these injustices engender.More confrontational and militant than Marley, Peter Tosh was a stepping razor, not to be taken lightly.He also did some incredible covers in hi...
