The Wailers February 10, 2006

Even the most casual of music fans knows that the late Bob Marley, along with his band, The Wailers, was almost single-handedly responsible for bringing reggae out of the streets of his native Jamaica and into the mainstream of American popular music.

The Wailers have done little recording since some very productive years in the 1970s . But since Marley's death in 1981, the band has maintained a touring presence in an effort to keep Marley's music and message in the ears and minds of American listeners -timesdispatch.com-
