Happy Birthday Bob Marley

Fri, Feb 06, 2009 11:22 am


HIGH TIMES celebrates the birth of reggae legend Bob "Nesta" Marley (February 6, 1945 - May 11, 1981) with this archival video of Mr. Marley discussing his favorite herb. Bob also sang the praises of ganja in songs such as "Kaya," "Three Little Birds," "Three O'Clock in the Morning (Roadblock)," and many others... Now, excuse me while I light my spliff!

it was just a couple months ago i was in nine mile jamacia smokin some of the fattest rastafari rolled spliffs you could imagine, if you've never been to Bob's birth and final resting place it's well worth any price to experience one of the,if not the greatest spiritual adventures of your life. His music has reached across the world touching souls and soothing minds.


"Life and Jah are one in the same. Jah is the gift of existence. I am in some way eternal, I will never be duplicated. The singularity of every man and woman is Jah's gift. What we struggle to make of it is our sole gift to Jah. The process of what that struggle becomes, in time, the Truth."
-Bob Marley

Bob Marley is not dead. How could somebody leave a comment saying that? He lives on through his music. My parents grew up during the 60's and 70's. So even though I was not alive while Bob was, I love his music and what he stands for thanks to the influence of my parents' generation. Herb truely is the healing of a nation. The time where we all will get to witness this firsthand is coming near and I've never been more impassioned

Hightimes magazine, I hope you guys know that you have an obligation, as writers, to spread the truths about marijuana, its past, and why it has the stigma that it does. Peace people, and remember to enjoy your herb responsibly. Dont continue to give others reason to hate beatiful Mary Jane!

We love Bob, and everything he stood for. People can be sooo narrow-minded. We have a 9 month old baby girl that we named Marley after good old Bob. (which is funny casue that was Will Smiths daughters name in I Am Legend, after Bob also and I didn't even know it until after my daughter was born). Anyways, LONG LIVE THE PLANT!!!!

baltimore fred, you get the award for dumbest comment. it's called an accent. what do you expect from someone actually proud to be from balti-whore.

Peace people! It's more important than ever to spread the good vibrations. Not just about cannabis's potential (best source for paper, fiber, fuel, food and medecine) but also about the message of love and unity surrounding the herb.

``What is my message? Peace, love and unity, and peace and livity``

Dan Slam an Iraq Vet.... You made a Bad choice when deciding to smoke weed to aide your Post traumatic stress. Dont forget to dream about all your buddies...arms and legs!

also...

Feb 6 2009, 6:06 pm

Bob Marley did try to fight anti-cannabis laws in his lifetime but let's not forget that he was also a great musician who advocated for revolution (not just weed). To forget this would be to do him a disservice.

Baltimoron Fred: Bob Marley did speak English, just with a an accent called Pato, like everyone else from his country (Jamaica).
With all the millions they make, its amazing the team in your town can't learn to play football!

Bob is not dead, he is all around us. The one thing he taught us was love, and where ever you find love you'll find a piece of Bob, hold on to his most precious words "One Love One Heart Lets Get Together And Feel Alright" Happy Birthday Bob and Thanks for everything

Feb 6 2009, 1:36 pm

Wow! I love to hear him speak!
This looks like footage from Catch a fire? no?
haha I totally agree.. Y is everyone getting so worked up about it? Because "government" said it's illegal so that makes it "bad"... what they don't think about is how much money the government is making from sending people to jail over a joint!
Hopefully Obama will decriminalize Ganja in Florida if not legalize it!
Happy Birthday Nesta! One Love!

Feb 6 2009, 1:09 pm

Bob's legacy to Humankind wasn't just Ganja.
His fighting spirit, tuneful protests against racism, society's indifference towards the poor and his wishes that everybody would be free one day are the things that still resonate with millions.
I still think of him every day.
One Love!

Don't give up the fight - never give up the fight

I heard like a 24 minute non stop gig he did. He was a great entertainer. He loved singing, and his herb.

Looks like he made a BAD choice...when he shot the sheriff and not the deputy.
