Bob Marley – Survival (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Originally released in 1979, *Survival* arrived at a pivotal moment, with Marley deepening his Pan-African convictions and speaking directly to the continent's independence movements. Tracks like "Zimbabwe" became anthems of liberation, performed for the actual independence celebration in Harare in 1980, connecting reggae's roots to real political change on a global scale.
Containing what is considered Marley's most defiant and politically charged statement to date, Survival concerns itself with the expressed solidarity of not only Africa, but of humanity at large. The album was controversial right down to the jacket, which contains a crude schematic of the stowage compartment of a typical transatlantic slave ship. Now available on 180 gram vinyl in original artwork.
