APRIL 1973: With Catch a Fire, the band known then as simply The Wailers, created a bridge between the deep roots sound of Jamaica and the commercial rock music of the international market, particularly the USA and UK.
Fronted by Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer and recorded between three different eight-track studios in Kingston, Jamaica, Catch a Fire was produced in London by Chris Blackwell of Island Records.
