Bob Marley - Interview With Neville Willoughby 

Interviewer: Bob, first of all, you just came from a tour. Where were you?
Bob Marley: In England, you know. Was in America first and then after America, we went to England.

Interviewer: The tour in America I hear was Sly and the Family Stone. What was it like working with them?

Bob Marley: Great, you know. Yes we are on this tour with Sly and did some shows with him until after a while we never finished about 3 of the shows because we added some dates on ours.

Interviewer: Yeah, yeah.

Bob Marley: So that's how it really went with that.

Interviewer: Listen, now the time has come when you are going on tours with people like Sly and the Family Stone. I mean these are people that we hear about in Jamaica and when you hear the name you know they are big stars. When you perform on the same bill with persons like that do you feel any different from when you perform in Jamaica on your own?

Bob Marley: Well right now the difference in feelings...right now I don’t feel any difference. I just want to play good music and play good music. So I don't care where the music is playing because it is not the people that we are playing; we are playing music. You know?

Interviewer: Yeah, yeah.

Bob Marley: So we just love to play good music.

Interviewer: But Bob have you at all made any changes in the way you play your music when you go to America or you just paly it the same way that you play it here?

Bob Marley: Well, to tell you the truth, the music that I play or the music that I would like to play is a music that plays in Jamaica but it never really got the full understanding or the music that I'm going to play.....Because the next... from now on it's my music that we're going to play now.

Interviewer: Yeah, yeah. Of course this business about you being popular in England nowadays. You just told me you're on the cover of which magazine? What magazine in England this week; one of the music magazines?

Bob Marley: I hear it is Melody Maker.

Interviewer: Alright. So you're on the cover of Melody Maker in Britain. That must mean that they think a great deal of you. Critics write about your records and all that sort of thing. Do you think this is the point that you want it to reach or what exactly is the point that you want to get to in music?

Bob Marley: Well the point is the fulfillment of revelation. And I know that it is my work to go out into Babylon to really do what I do. But I find myself doing it and I can't stop it because a greater power that the power that I know of myself. Let me do it and then I find no harm coming to me so I do it. But the real thing is that His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I is earth's rightful ruler and I am a citizen of the earth and Zion is Ethiopia. Well, I don't know if it is my work to go out into Babylon and really get the youths together but I find myself in a form where if I have understanding or overstanding I can see it really is doing something towards something, you know. And it's revelation now.

Interviewer: Now Bob, can we talk a little bit about you and how you started out in this singing business? I know you started very young. How did you start?

Bob Marley: Started out crying. 

Interviewer: Right from the start?

Bob Marley: Started out crying, you know. And then music becomes a part or music is a part or was a part. But to tell you how it really started it's really a thing that I am going to have to think about how it really started because I can't be ungrateful to Jah. Because today we start yet it was yesterday. So from the beginning, Jah was creating it in the starting for the man to start.

Interviewer: Yeah, yeah.

Bob Marley: You know what I mean? So I really have to think about from creation then.
