A true "photographic biography" of Bob Marley arrives on the literary market! See on Surforeggae.
This is a book-album with 256 pages in the format (360mm x 250mm) and 400 photos of the King, with the vast majority never before published.

This is a book-album with 256 pages in the format (360mm x 250mm) and 400 photos of the King, with the vast majority never before published. The restoration and reproduction process was done in New York, and all images are faithfully reproduced and varnished. Some pages are made with cannabis leaf.
Photographed by Kate Simon, only 2,000 (two thousand) copies will be reproduced. Copies 1 to 350 are luxury and limited editions, suitable for framing, and also signed by Eric Clapton, responsible for the success of "I Shot The Sheriff", the song that introduced Bob Marley to the world.
All copies are housed in a personalized wooden box worthy of a collection. The 400 photos blend between color and black and white, including Bob's live shows.
Lyceum - London in 1975;
European Tour in 1977;
"Peace and Love" Show held in 1978, where Marley united opposing political leaders (when Jamaica was being dragged into civil war);
Backstages;
Hotel room at Sheraton - Kingston;
Tour bus on the "Exodus" tour;
Marley and the Wailers at their best;
...and as could not be missing, Kate's worst section: "Marley's Funeral in 1981".
The Book features definitive images of the legendary Peter Tosh, Bunny, Toots Hibbert, and ardently documents Reggae Music in the world. About the Photographer, we have a statement from Cedella Marley:
"Kate Simon was always one of my favorite photographers. She captured the most intimate moments that we never saw. Mom and Dad playing soccer... the classic 'Chillin' of I Threes'..."
Kate reveals that the photos, such as the cover of the Album "Kaya", were always taken naturally in Marley's day-to-day life, never as a special photo session.
