More Wailers

Album Cover from Bob Marley and the Wailers

After the split up of the band, Bob Marley decided he wasn’t done recording as “The Wailers” just yet. He replaced the old members of the band with brothers, Carlton and Aston “Family Man” Barret, Al Anderson, Tyrone Downie, Earl “Wya” Lindo, and Alvin “Seeco” Patterson. In 1975, Bob Marley reached international fame with his song, “No Woman, No Cry”, and in 1976 he had a popular album in the United States called, “Rastaman Vibration”. It was on the Billboard 100 for four weeks. Bob Marley left Jamaica in 1976 and spent two years in England, where he recorded two albums, “Exodus” and “Kaya”. “Exodus” was on the top British charts for fifty-six consecutive weeks. Performances by the band ended in 1981, when Bob Marley died from the cancer that spread through his body. From 1975 to 1981, Bob Marley and the Wailers spread their love of music and life in general all over the world.
