The devastating food crisis in Somalia and across East Africa is the worst in decades. Over 12 million people are affected -- many have no food, no water and have lost all their livestock.

Ziggy Marley, with video (07:22):

Hail family, this version of Bob Marley's "Jammin'" ( in case someone doesn't know :) was recorded in Sao Paulo, Brazil during our tour with Shakira.

I remember this song and this show specifically because the rain was gently falling on my head and it gave me a really good vibe.

I called "Jammin'" instinctively as we were about to start "Black Cat", it wasn't planned, it wasn't on the set list, it was just a feeling. I always try and follow the truth inside of me.

I wanted to share that vibe with you. It's called "Jammin' in the rain".

Enjoy and we will talk soon.

I will never forget thirty years ago.

luv powah.

Howie P.S.: Bob Marley left this earth 30 years ago.

Bob Marley and the Wailers introduced the world to Jamaican reggae in the 1970s. This 1973 classic remains an anthem for human rights today.

Against All Odds: "Bob Marley & the Wailers - Catch a Fire 1999" (video)

xyzington, video Pt. 1 (10:00):

When Bob Marley, Bunny Livingston (Wailer), and Peter McIntosh (Tosh)entered the studio and began recording Catch a Fire in 1972, they had already established an impressive track record on the island of Jamaica. But when they signed to Chris Blackwell's Island label, their music reached a new level. While reggae music had not been tremendously popular at this time, The Wailers proved their style of reggae was strong enough to carry a full-length album.
