In my opinion he invented reggae guitar, founded The Wailers with Bob Marley, wrote Get Up, Stand Up, played all over the world, his first three albums are classics.

Great writer and one of my favorite guitarist of all time. There is a documentary about him and I have been searching for it. What a tragedy.

This was my song during from 2016 to 2020
