Bob Marley and the Wailers, Rockpalast (06/13/80)
One of the fun parts of doing this music blog has been revisiting concerts that I first came across through tape-trading. I don’t know if you were ever part of that culture, but I have a lot of good memories and was privy to a lot of great music through the U.S. postal system. I once had stacks of tapes of CDRs that I wish I had kept. But sometimes life leads you in other directions and you revisit those memories through the Internet.
Today we’re re-visiting Bob Marley and the Wailers live for Rockpalast (06/13/80). I gave this CDR away several years ago during one of our moves, but I have kept digital versions of the show. Until just the other day, I didn’t know that video of the show existed (I know, I know, you all knew this video existed a long time ago). But it does and it’s worth your time.
