Description
Marcus Garvey is the third album by the reggae singer Burning Spear, released in 1975 on Island Records. The album is named after the Jamaican National Hero and Rastafari movement prophet Marcus Garvey.
This was the first album by the group recorded for Island Records, whose founder Chris Blackwell had been instrumental in breaking Jamaican reggae artists Jimmy Cliff, Toots and the Maytals, and Bob Marley to an international audience. It was produced by Lawrence Lindo, better known by his handle taken from the assassin of Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby. Apparently, upon their first meeting, Lindo and vocalist Winston Rodney realized the opening track to this album, "Marcus Garvey." The backing musicians, whom Lindo named The Black Disciples band, had been assembled from The Soul Syndicate and The Wailers.
This is a 12" 33RPM Vinyl LP , brand new and shrinkwrapped.
