Reggae Icon Bunny Wailer — Founding Member of the Wailers — Has Died at 73

Born April 10th, 1947, in the Nine Mile district of Jamaica’s St. Ann Parish, Livingstone was a friend of Marley from a young age; following the death of Marley’s father, Norval, in 1955, Marley’s mother, Cedella, lived with Livingstone’s father, Thaddeus, in Trench Town, making Bunny and Bob near-stepbrothers.

"We having a dream, having a vision," Wailer told The Washington Post in 2006, "but as to the magnitude of what the dream might grow to, that is something that you cannot determine. At the same time, we believed in the music. We loved the music. We knew there was a lot of people that would have loved it just the same, if they got the chance to hear it. We knew that it had a place in all of the other music cultures that it has now been fit into.“

Reggae-Ikone Bunny Wailer von The Wailers ist tot

Marley und Wailer waren nicht nur Freunde, sondern quasi Stiefbrüder: Wailers Vater hatte ein Kind mit Marleys Mutter. Wailer und Marley begannen gemeinsam Musik zu machen. Später stiess Peter Tosh dazu – The Wailers (später auch The Wailing Wailers) waren geboren, die bekannteste Reggae-Band aller Zeiten.
