In the third installment of Bob's 1978 press conference at the Waldorf Astoria, he talks with reporters about music's revolutionary potential, summing his thoughts up with the legendary setiment, "Music is the biggest gun."

In the second installment of Bob's famous press conference at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City, he discusses the potential globalization of Rastafari, the future of the Wailers as a touring band and Marxism.

When Bob released Rastaman Vibration in 1976, he noted that the most important thing to take away from it was the lyrical content. In "Night Shift," which he rehearses in this exclusive video series from a September 1980 session at Miami's Criteria Studio, he takes on the worker's voice, relating to the common struggle of earning a daily wage.

In the latest edition of the BobMarley.com Miami Rehearsal Series, Bob and the Wailers combine the classics "Running Away" and "Crazy Baldhead" during a rehearsal in September of 1980.

In an era of apartheid, a burgeoning Cold War and the United States-Iran hostage crisis, Bob's 1979 Survival album delivered a resounding narrative, kicking off with "So Much Trouble in the World."

Last July, a large portion of Church Avenue between East 98th Street and Remsen Avenue in the East Flatbush section of Brooklyn was renamed Bob Marley Boulevard. Spend a day visiting the most Marley-centric street in New York City with BobMarley.com. 

In BobMarley.com's special presentation of "Come A Long Way," it's clear that New Zealanders respected and praised Bob's musical and political achievements. But his Rasta beliefs kept him at an arm's length of many Jamaicans for years before he achieved international stardom.

Bob Marley's life was so legendary and unfortunately so short that even his rehearsals have to be considered historic events. This couldn't be more true in the case of the early September 1980 session at Criteria Studios in Miami, which turned out to be the last rehearsal of Bob's life.

When Bob Marley gave a rare press conference at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York in June 1978, he was at the height of his popularity as a ground-breaking singer, songwriter and ambassador of reggae. But, not surprisingly, the questions he answered from the media didn't focus solely on music.
