The photo above inspired me to write about Burning Spear.
Many years ago, I came across a CD of vintage reggae songs called Studio One Presents Rare Reggae: Collector's Edition.
There was an early Burning Spear single on it called Live Good. I gave it no more thought than that.
It would take me hearing the song Marcus Garvey to light the fire under me for Burning Spear.
I was more than happy to buy the 2CD Burning Spear - Chant Down Babylon The Island Anthology I found at one of my favorite Plateau music stores.
I discovered another favorite single, Slavery Days, thanks to that compilation.
