Story behind the song
Our tribute to Bob Marley; Feb 06, 1945 - May 11, 1981 (melanoma) For a brief moment he graced this earth with music and love. Another fine backing track from aka FendrGuitPlayr, Building on his acoustic guitar chops, bass, percussion and organ composition, I had fun adding punchy horns, electric guitar chops and a bit of melodic soloing with my TriplePlay guitar synth and TEC MIDI sweep controler pedal.

My wife has me listening to more reggae now then ever. So this tune is fun for me. Love the swing and the guitar is really nice. The "chug" is what makes it for me tho.. I guess that's what reggae's build on tho right? (the chug?).. :)

Fine tribute to Robert Nesta Marley "The King of Reggae" Fine rhythm with a strong beat and percussion. The solo guitars and bass sound great throughout the track. The organ break is a really nice touch as well. Very nice mix and playing from you both! Feeling no pain!
