商品の紹介

マーリーとウィラーズを共にしながらスターになることを拒否し、ジャマイカにこだわり、権力と闘い続けたピーター・トッシュの歴史的名盤2作が蘇る。不安定な政治や暴力、貧困にあえぐジャマイカの現況を歌うことでルード・ボーイたちの音楽、レゲエ。レゲエを世界的に広めた最大の功労者＝ボブ・マーリーは、最終的には世界中の人々に普遍の愛を歌い、政治にも影響を与えるカリスマになった。そのマーリーとバンドを組みながら、スターになることを拒否し、ジャマイカにこだわり、権力と闘い続け、のたれ死んだ男＝それが、ピーター・トッシュ。今回は、彼が投げかけた世界的なレゲエのポップ化に対するアンチテーゼ、歴史的名作にして、衝撃作と言われるアルバム『Legalize It』（1976年）、『Equal Rights』（1977年）に、それぞれ7曲のボーナス･トラック、そしてボーナス・ディスク、リマスター、書き下ろし英文解説を付加して復刻。

Spin (p.80) - "On 1976's LEGALIZE IT, he brashly mixed pro-ganja agitprop and Rasta musings..." Uncut (p.84) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here are some appealing, rare dub plates..." CMJ (7/19/99, pp.27,35) - "...among the most crucial reggae albums ever released....LEGALIZE IT prevails to this day as one of the all-time great stoner records, due to its rabidly expressive advocation of the spiritual and mystical wonders of ganja..." Mojo (Publisher) (p.120) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The sublime LEGALIZE IT predominantly showcases his spiritual and mischievous aspects, though even here an inescapable melancholy pervades."

Liner Note Authors: Lee Jaffe; Roger Steffens. Photographers: Adrian Boot; Lee Jaffe. Arranger: Peter Tosh. After spending 12 years as a member of Bob Marley's Wailers, Peter Tosh was eager to break free from the shadow of the legendary frontman. In 1976, he released LEGALIZE IT, still one of the most significant albums in the history of reggae. The title track expresses one of Tosh's many political causes, justifying the legalization of marijuana as a remedy for various medical ailments. "Burial" is one of several tracks that features the talents of the Wailers' stand-out lead guitarist, Al Anderson. Tosh adds his own seasoning to the reggae pot as he incorporates keyboards in "Whatcha Gonna Do" and synthesizers and sound effects on "Igziabeher." "Ketchy Shuby," a sing-along about fooling around, features the background vocal talents of Rita Marley, Bunny Wailer, and Judy Mowatt. Tosh's life ended too early, and LEGALIZE IT is the strongest testament to his legacy. Take a listen, and share the spirit of his genius.
