Angående Bob Marley

..................

han var ju här å lira poker..men förlora, å snodde en gitar å drog hem!...sägs det

Following the success of Trench Town Rock, Danny Sims asked Bob if he would fly to Stockholm to write songs for a movie soundtrack. Johnny Nash was in the Swedish capital, starring in a film called "Love Is Not a Game" that was being made there.
Creatively, the trip was productive - although the movie flopped in Sweden and never opened anywhere else. Bob provided Johnny Nash with a mixture of old and new material: Stir It Up, which he had initially written for Rita during his absence in the United States; Cornerstone, which had already been recorded with Lee Perry; and This Train, which dated back to the Wailers' days with Studio One.
In the meantime, back in Jamaica, Danny Sims arranged for Peter, Bunny, and the Barrett brothers to fly to London to play support dates to Johnny Nash, currently in the British charts with 'I Can See Clearly Now', on a UK tour. As it turned out, the musicians only played one such show, on the outskirts of London.
To complicate matters, while staying in a house where they were rehearsing in the suburban wasteland of Neasden, a serious incident occurred: the group were all arrested on suspicion of smuggling ganja.
This was the final straw. Bob was tired of the stop-start nature of his career. Sweden had been miserable; the support tour with Johnny Nash had failed to materialise - although Bob had played guitar in a backing group for Nash on some dates in English secondary schools; CBS had singularly failed to promote 'Reggae On Broadway', a Bob Marley solo single; and now life as it was lived in Trench Town had come home to roost in suburban north London, almost landing the Tuff Gong in jail.
Bob made a decision. There seemed to be, as far as he could make out, only one avenue of escape. He arranged for Brent Clarke, a record company promotions man of Jamaican origin who did work for Sims, to effect an introduction to Chris Blackwell, the white Jamaican founder of Britain's most successful independent record company, Island Records.
