In 1973, Bob Marley and The Wailers, which included both Peter
Tosh and Bunny Wailer, released Catch A Fire, their first album on a major
record label. Catch a Fire was followed in October by Burnin', which included
future classics, Get Up, Stand Up, and I Shot the Sheriff. The latter tune captivated Eric Clapton, whose
cover version in 1974 went to #1 on the Billboard charts and brought reggae to the attention of
an entire new audience. The Wailers also captured the attention of Sly Stone, who asked them to open 17 of his shows on his 1973 tour. After 4 shows, Sly fired the Wailers because they were too
popular! Fans wee chanting “Wailers” during Sly’s set, much to the headliner’s
chagrin! Soon after that incident, KSAN-FM invited the band to perform on their
Live From The Record Plant series. This
FM broadcast captures that concert on October 31, 1973, 45 years ago today. Download
this one to hear the original Wailers, before Tosh and Wailer left to pursue
solo careers in 1974.

Thanks!
Thanks for this. I have had a copy for years, but Lively Up Yourself was cut off so it didn't include Walk the Proud Land. You rock.
I think there is something wrong with this link. It only downloads less than 1 MB, not the whole .rar file. Please check
Great post, early Wailers are rare. Just an FYI, Bunny Wailer refused to do the 1973 US Tour and was replaced by Joe Higgs on percussion & vocals. Joe was Jimmy Cliff's band leader and a mentor to Marley. In fact, I believe he introduced Marley to Tosh & Wailer. So Bunny Wailer is not on this show, Joe Higgs is.
Hello - The downloaded .rar file only contains artwork; none of the audio files are present. The same is true with The Clash show posted on 10/19. Could you please re-up both shows?
Thanks!
Really good to hear the original Wailers playing.
Even better, this performance percolates in prisitne sound.
Many, many thanks.
This is a classic! Have had a tape since the early 80s. It is my favorite Marley bootleg. I rank this as one of the top 50 or so bootlegs of all time. Just an opinion from an old tape trader.
Amazing sound! Thanks a bunch. Great era.
This is working fine! When you get to the zippyshae page, click on the orange button that says download now. be sure to remove any pop up blocker!
Thank you tons for Bob. Always a great show.
This recording is amazing. Any more Marley you can post? Regardless, just want to thank you for sharing amazing tunes with all of us. You have remarkable taste, and your passion for the shows comes across in your words and stories. It's a huge gift you're giving the world. Thank you for spreading the joy of music and the magic of live shows.
Thanks for the kind words. More Marley to come in the future but in the meantime here's a link to another show: https://www40.zippyshare.com/v/XtAMGdum/file.html
