+——————————-[Release Notes]——————————+
| |
| Released: 4 May 1973. Highest Chart Positions: UK: -, USA: 171 |
| |
| The Wailers produced their first album for Chris Blackwell in 1973. |
| Blackwell had given 4,000 to The Wailers to make the album. Many |
| thought that he would not see any return for his investment, Wow were |
| they wrong. Blackwell presented The Wailers as an alternative to |
| mainstream rock. Bob’s locks were really growing and their rebel image |
| was being played up to help captivate the white audience of hippeish |
| rock. |
| |
| The sleevenote that accompanied the album was littered with mistakes, |
| managing to spell Peter and Bunny’s name incorrectly (Mackinntosh and |
| Livingstone as opposed to the correct spellings McIntosh & Livingston) |
| Though the mistakes in the sleevenotes were all but forgotten as this |
| was the only reggae album to come in a flip-up sleeve shaped like a |
| Zippo lighter. The album was recorded at Dynamic, Harry J’s, Randy’s |
| and Kingston Studio’s. Originally the album was scheduled to be a low |
| key affair it was meant to be a rare LP that was to be released on the |
| Blue Mountain label. The matrix was to be BML 2001. ‘Baby, Baby We’ve |
| Got A Date was released on the Blue Mountain label and received strong |
| reviews in the UK music press. |
| |
| Musicians: Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Livingston, Aston Barrett, |
| Carlton Barrett, Earl “Wya” Lindo, Tyrone Townie, Winston Wright, Glen |
| Adams, Alva Lewis, Willy San Francisco, Chris Karen, Rita Marley and |
| Marcia Griffiths. |
| |

| |
| Concrete Jungle |
| |
| This is how you introduce yourself to the world. “Concrete Jungle” was |
| the first song on the album and it starts it off in fine fashion. The |
| Wailers sounded much more together and much better produced. |
| |
| Slave Driver |
| |
| The LP title was derived from this song: “Slave driver, catch a fire, |
| so you can get burned”. Peter Tosh produces a great scratchy guitar |
| performance. The Wailers harmonies are again in great force. Is there |
| a better indictment or a more succinct indictment of Capitalism? The |
| lines in the song where he says: ‘Good God this illiteracy / is just a |
| machine to make money’. Keep ‘em stupid, keep ‘em illiterate. |
| |
| 400 Years |
| |
| Peter Tosh goes back to a track from the “Soul Rebel’s” album. Though |
| this rendition is of a much slower tempo, and the attitude is a lot |
| more laid-back and meandering. |
| |
| Stop That Train |
| |
| Again Tosh goes back to an old song, this time the version is much |
| slower and of a gospellish style. |
| |
| Baby, Baby We’ve Got A Date (Rock It Baby) |
| |
| This was the first Wailers single on the Island label (UK BlueMountain |
| it was given the name of “Baby, Baby We’ve Got A Date”), though on the |
| US Island label it was known as Rock It Baby The song was also pressed |
| for Tuff Gong as “Rock It Babe”. Female vocals are added most probably |
| from Rita and Marica. |
| |
| Stir It Up |
| |
| This one was from the rocksteady era that has been remade. A year |
| previous to the release from The Wailers, Johnny Nash had a hit with |
| it. This version is very neat and precise. |
| |
| Kinky Reggae |
| |
| ‘Kinky’ was a catchphrase in the early 1970′s in Jamaica. Very similar |
| to “Natty Dread” in the sense that Bob wanders through various places |
| meeting various people. During the song Bob is unable to decide if he |
| wants to live in a kinky part of town or not. |
| |
| No More Trouble |
| |
| Carlton Barrett’s one drop drum style is particularly magnificent here |
| This song was eventually segued into War during live performances, was |
| always a part of the live shows whether it be on it’s own or coupled |
| with War. Seguing the two together made perfect sense too. |
| |
| Midnight Ravers |
| |
| A rootsy track to close out the album. Magnificent harmonies on this |
| version. The apocalyptic vision of confused sexes and 10,000 horseless |
| chariots must have seemed stranged to people not familiar with Bob’s |
| Book ofRevelations imagery. The song is absolute magic when Bob played |
| it live. A brilliant song to end The Wailers debut album for Island. |
