BOB MARLEY AND THE WAILERS - KINKY REGGAE (1975)
DUBROOM VIDEO REVIEW

WWW, November 2008 - After the bizarre introduction, Bob Marley and the Wailers perform their track for American television. The year is 1975, and a lot was about to happen.

The quality of the video is abominable, but the historic value of this Bob Marley performance for American television is just too big.

America was not ready for Reggae, as many Reggae historians would say, about that time around the early 1970's. In a documentary called "Catch a Fire", we see just how much effort was put into getting Bob Marley and Reggae Music accepted by the mainstream in the land of R&B.

The performance on this video can be seen in that historical context. It was a time wherein not just Bob Marley and the Wailers, but many more tried to get Reggae Music into the main stream. A long, long struggle that would take quite a few years still...
