For their fans around the world a simple and grandiose rockero rastafari that consumed drugs on the scenario was. For those repressed of the Jamaican ghettos it was the inspiration, the reason of the reggae and a semi-God.
We are speaking of Peter Tosh.Son two the family faces of the history of the reggae that share protagonism in the positions of posters in the streets, flags, rowers, among others: Bob Marley and Peter Tosh (whose true name was Winston Hubert Mc. Intosh) who at some time, there for 1963, they shared the band that impelled this rhythm: “The Wailing Wailers.”
In their beginnings, the band formed by Marley, Tosh and Livingstone, composed mainly instrumental music. To make it singable, some groups began to make slow the rhythm, they left that the first floor and not the battery, was the rhythmic support, and that the guitar played accentuating the weak times of the compass.
The letters of that time, were about the thematic one romantic, but they didn't take a lot in including histories of the street, with their glorification of the “rude boy” (rude boy), the racketeer's of the slums archetype, as well they demonstrate it in their first hit: “Simmer Down”, and in others as: “Get Up Stand Up”, “400 Years”, or “One Fundation.”
The reggae that he/she took so much elements of the ska like of the rock steady, and that it began to be popularized at the end of the years sixty and he had a musical extra influence: the philosophy rastafarius.
Be absent for one year, after being in the United States, Bob Marley returns to Jamaica with a new musical orientation and letters, and it is for these internal changes in the band that Peter Tosh decides to abandon the group. The music of Tosh like soloist became more radical and of much stronger political nature. In the '87, their last disk “Not Nuclear War” whose launching Tosh could not witness to be murdered, reflective all social problem and politics at world level.
