Asked by Wiki User

It's from Bob Marley and the Wailing Wailers.

The song was performed on the Babylon by Bus tour and was never released.

There is a common mistake that because Bob Marley says "gorilla finger" that this was the name of the artist or band, gorilla finger is the name of a fat spliff.

Who was the very first reggae artist?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is a very hard question and i don't think we will get a definitive answer. The first tune to use the term reggae was 'The Maytals' with 'Do the Reggay' in 1968.

Among the contenders for the first reggae tune are:

Larry & Alvin - Nanny Goat

The Beltones - No More Heartaches

Lynford Anderson - Pop A Top

Lee Perry - People Funny Boy

As I say this is very debatable but those four seem the main contenders.

Was Bob Marley a good role model?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes! He was the best role model there was. He changed the world of music, and we wouldn't be anywhere without him! I hate how people always say, "Oh, he is bad he smoked pot," and so and so... But the truth is he changed us greatly. He wanted no violence or nothing, he wanted peace always and forever. Yes he smoked pot but he didn't know what it would to him. It wasn't illegal in Jamaica back then. Most people don't see the great soul and inspiration in him. He was and will always be outstanding!
