175. I and I: The Natural Mystics – Marley, Tosh and Wailer with Colin Grant

Speakers: Colin Grant

Over one dramatic decade, a trio of Trenchtown R&B crooners, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer and Bob Marley, swapped their 1960s Brylcreem hairdos for dreadlocks and became the Wailers. Colin Grant, BBC radio producer, Associate Fellow at the Yesu Persaud Centre for Caribbean Studies (University of Warwick) and acclaimed author of Negro With a Hat, his biography of Marcus Garvey, investigates a story of creativity, squandered talent and rivalry.
