    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

The recognition that Bob Marley received, both during his life and after his death, is comparatively different between the two countries. As iconic as Marley is, why is his message and legacy different in the United States and most of his recognition not received till after his death? The researcher explores how Marley’s message was received in the two countries and whether his audience understood his philosophy and message in the same way. Results indicate that the communication of his thoughts were heard somewhat differently in Jamaica and the United States. Finally, this study presents recommendations for future research.

For almost 30 years from 1948 to 1995, the people of South Africa lived under an oppressive system of control called apartheid. After years of struggle, the Anti-Apartheid leaders were released and true democracy came to South Africa in 1995. Over the last twelve years, South Africans from all walks of life have shown the rest of us that it is possible to heal the bitter conflicts and hate that divide so many of our world’s citizens. Catch a Fire celebrates the determination of humans to live freely and equally. In the anti-Apartheid struggle of South Africa, the spirits of millions were uplifted by the words and melodies of the Freedom Songs. As you will see in the film, when it seemed that there was no end to the oppression, South Africans would strengthen their resolve to continue to press for freedom by joining each other in song.

  • Religion and Revolution in the Lyrics of Bob Marley" Jan Decosmo, Asst
    "Religion and Revolution in the Lyrics of Bob Marley" Jan DeCosmo, Asst. Professor of Humanities Florida A&M University, Tallahassee, Florida Caribbean Studies Assn. Conference, Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, May 1994 (working copy, not for publication) In one of his many interviews, Bob Marley made the statement that reggae music had always been there, and that what made his music important was the lyrics. "Yes, it's necessary to understand the lyrics," he insisted [Time Will Tell 1992]. One connection of roots reggae to an earlier Caribbean tradition--specifically, calypso--is this emphasis on meaningful lyrics. According to Billy Bergman in his book, Hot Sauces: Pop, Reggae and Latin, this partiality for meaningful lyrics can be traced back to the African griot. He writes: Africans, brought as slaves to the island of TrinicW—the birthplace of calpyso--found the griot tradition a useful way of saying things that were not to be broadcoast in other ways. Diatribes against their oppressors could be couched in verse. The African tradition of ridicule songs was also maintained in after-work song sessions in which different work gangs praised themselves and made fun of others. [Later] . the political and social happenings of the Eastern Caribbean, and the world, were composed and commented upon in calypso lyrics. World wars were discussed, and legendary figures such as Roosevelt praised or condemned according to the views of the singers. Black news from around the world was especially noted. The living newspaper tradition of calypso continues to this day. [Bergman 1985:57] After reading this description, I was struck by a comment I remembered Marley had made to an interviewer about his music: "Reggae music" he said, "is a people music.

  • Bob Marley and the Wailers “Compared Discography”
    Bob Marley and the Wailers “Compared discography” KAZO, http://kazo.wailers.free.fr/ v.13 January 29th, 2009 SOURCES OF PASSION: OFFICIAL RECORDS and HIDDEN GEMS In the following pages, all regular entries, officially released, are in black. In Grey are the official songs which have been restored or cleaned by me (sometimes with significant improvement). Red and orange mark songs obtained by trade, not officially available yet. Red addresses tracks from various vinyls, 7’, 12’, LPs, dark red addresses other sources, demos, rehearsals, dubplates, etc. Blue are the known songs from whose I own no copy yet (hope this category will reduce in future!). Finally, there are several legendary titles with no extant recording known: there are written in purple here. (Light green is for tracks which have been mistakenly attributed to the Wailers and which should not be there). I have neglected most of cheap compilations as well as some important Trojan releases which are outdated today like “African Herbsman”, “Rasta Revolution”, “In Memoriam”, “In The Beginning”, and so on. (Although most of them are now reappearing with extra tracks on CD, 2004). : Songs of Freedom. (SoF-1) to (SoF-4) , Tuff Gong, Island, 1992, is the best available compilation for whom wants to discover Bob Marley’s legacy. The songs of this boxset span all over Bob Marley’s career. The sound is neat but appears sometimes slightly remixed and less genuine. But, it greatest interest is the inclusion of the two very first songs recorded by Bob Marley and the Wailers in 1962. As far as the later periods are concerned, several rarities, like the original Iron Lion Zion, are only found in this boxset.

  • Songs of Freedom
    SONGS OF FREEDOM Published by THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT OF THE WORKMEN'S CIRCLE 48 EAST 33Ro STREET NEW YORK, N. Y. 10016 o~iu : IS3 This songster is published in conjunction with the 75th anniversary of The Workmen's Circle and that of the International Ladies Garment Workers of America. Tt contains the text of songs which the workers of the American labor movement sang in their years of struggle for union recognition and improved working conditions, as well as for a just society. Many W. C. members will recall these songs with nostalgia, as they look back on their early years of activity in The Workmen's Circle and in the labor movement. Others will remember their parents singing them, at home, at meetings and at social gatherings. For those who never heard them they will provide an insight into the hopes and spirit of those who sang them in the old days in the never-ending struggle for a better life. We hope that Workmen's Circle branches and other groups will sing these songs at their meetings and special occasions. Community singing is always en- joyable and can be part of any occasion. These songs are. especially appropriate for organizational anni- versaries and programs dealing with our recent past.
