  1. Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers, Conscious Party, 1988 on Virgin

    Third LP from Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers, which included Stephen, Sharon and Cedella plus Ziggy, all children of Bob and Rita Marley (who also adds backing vocals). Guests include Jerry Harrison and Tina Weymouth. Chris Franz and Weymouth also produced.

    Loved this album when it came out – fairly certain I had a copy on vinyl in 1988, but jah knows where it ended up. This copyβ€”via the Worcester Record Riotβ€”is a Specialty pressing (see the E A S T around the spindle hole) with the original printed inner liner.

    Rita & Bob Marley - Part II

    But the relationship suffered as #BobMarley fell into the trappings of fame - "He was corrupted by showbusiness, by the girls who would throw themselves at him." says Rita
    Despite the road blocks, including a a rape when Rita denied her husband sex in an attempt to stop the affairs, the couple found a way to stay together.

    "I was always there for him and I'll always be there for him."

    Rita & Bob Marley - Part I

    Cuban-born Alpharita Anderson met Bob Marley as teens in Trenchtown Jamaica. Bon, guitarist for the Wailing Wailers, would pass Rita's house every day walking to the studio. Rita + her friends stopped the group, performing an impromptu song + they were invited back to sing vocals on some tracks. The couple would fall in love and marry.
