+——————————-[Release Notes]——————————+
| |
| Released: 25 October 1974. Highest Chart Positions: UK: 43, USA: 99 |
| |
| 1974 and Bob is now an official solo artist for the first time since |
| his debut couple of singles for Leslie Kong in ’62. Gone are Peter and |
| Bunny who went off to start their own solo careers, and so Bob enlists |
| the help of The I-Threes. The three members of the all female backing |
| trio were Rita Marley Marcia Griffiths & Judy Mowatt. Bob also brought |
| in Bernard “Touter” Harvey on keyboards and Al Anderson on lead guitar |
| The album was again recorded in Jamaica and again at Harry J’s Studio. |
| |
| While the “Natty Dread” album was not a huge commercial breakthrough, |
| it was undoubteadly several steps in the right direction. Natty Dread |
| appeared in the UK album charts for 5 weeks, it’s highest position |
| being 43. Again Bob went back to some old classics but reworking them, |
| Lively Up Yourself, Them Belly Full and Bend Down Low. Natty Dread is |
| a must have record for all Bob Marley fans, with every song being a |
| timeless classic. Alittle known fact is that there are different album |
| releases, as while the album was being mixed in London, provisional |
| mixes of certain songs were put to acetate including some half a dozen |
| alternate mixes of “Natty Dread” itself, and are now in the hands of a |
| sound system owner in London |
| |
| Musicians: Bob Marley Aston Barrett, Carlton Barrett, Bernard “Touter” |
| Harvey, Al Anderson, The I-Threes (Rita Marley Marcia Griffiths & Judy |
| Mowatt), Earl “Wya” Lindo, Tyrone Downie, Glen Da Costa, David Madden |
| and Tommy McCook. |

| |
| Lively Up Yourself |
| |
| Bob opens his first solo LP with an updated version of the old classic |
| Lively Up Yourself. Like Get Up Stand Up was an appeal for involement |
| as an opener only without the militancy style. |
| |
| No Woman No Cry |
| |
| This was it, the song the world had been waiting for. The best alltime |
| rock classic, never mind reggae or Bob classics. In a recent poll done |
| by a music magazine, No Woman No Cry crept in at number 7 in the best |
| single of all time. If you were to ask anyone to name a Marley song – |
| this would be their first response. A absolute belter when played live |
| non-english speaking crowds would sing in unison. This version however |
| is thiner sounding. It’s a short skank and high on spirit. Bob recalls |
| the suffering of his past. And how “Georgie would make the fire light” |
| The writing credit goes to that of Vincent Ford. |
| |
| Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) |
| |
| “Them Belly Full” was about physical and spiritual hunger. It had been |
| prviously released as “Bellyfull” & “Belly Full” on “Tuff Gong” 7inch |
| singles. The LP version retained much of the rootsiness of the earler |
| pressings. Bob urges: “Forget your weakness and dance / Forget your |
| sickness and dance”. |
| |
| Rebel Music (Three O’Clock Roadblock) |
| |
| Emphasising reggae’s place as a music of the Jamaicans poor, a role it |
| still plays today even if it is not Bobs music that performs it. Rebel |
| Music presents a picture of a Rasta being stopped by the police in a |
| land where everyone in theory is free. |
| |
| So Jah Seh |
| |
| Bob unleashes his Rasta consciousness in a way he hadnt done on record |
| too often in the past few years. Bob offers the word of God as a proof |
| that his kids, and by extension, the other children of the poor, shall |
| not starve for want of the monies class charity. Once again a popping |
| machine drum takes precidence over a live kit, and set against a tight |
| dry horn section and the light, skipping melody. Bob urges everyone to |
| come together and unite “Cause Puss and Dog, they get together / Whats |
| worng with loving one another”. A born stormer live and one of my all |
| time favourites. |
| |
| Natty Dread |
| |
| The titletrack is the next classic that Bob delivers. Similar to Kinky |
| Reggae in the sense that Bob moves from street to street, hearing kids |
| shouting “Natty Dread” at him, which he does not take as an insult by |
| merely a statement of glorious fact. The song was released as a “Tuff |
| Gong” 7″ single as Knotty Dread, that version is different to the that |
| of the album |
| |
| Bend Down Low |
| |
| Bob return to rockstready for another look at one of his more enduring |
| 60′s hits. Very similar to the original. |
| |
| Talkin’ Blues |
| |
| Another song with a rock-solid skank behind is like Them Belly Full. |
| Bob depicts himself as a sufferer no roof over his head and only rocks |
| for his pillow. Also featured is the mind blowing line “Cause I feel |
| like bombing a church / Now that you know the preacher is lying”. That |
| one line cause the song a considerable controversual reputation. The |
| last verse may well have been cut at a later date and pieced in due to |
| the fact That Bob’s voice seems to change conciderably. Take a listen |
| and see what you think. |
| |
| Revolution |
| |
| A slow chunky skank closes the album. Bob also tells you to “Never |
| make a politician grant you a favour /They will always want to control |
| you forever”. Great song to close Bob’s first solo album. |
