    "I love the development of our music, that's what I
    really dig about the whole thing. How we've tried
    to develop, y'know? It grows. That's why every day
    people come forward with new songs. Music goes on
    forever."

    --Bob Marley, August 1979

    We remember the brilliant and evocative music Bob Marley gave the world; music that stretches back over nearly two decades and still remains timeless and universal. Marley has been called "the first Third World superstar," "Rasta Prophet," "visionary," and" "revolutionary artist." These accolades were not mere hyperbole. Marley was one of the most charismatic and challenging performers of our time.

    Bob Marley's career stretched back over twenty years. During that time Marley's growing style encompassed every aspect in the rise of Jamaican music, from ska to contemporary reggae. That growth was well reflected in the maturity of the Wailers' music.

    Bob's first recording attempts came at the beginning of the Sixties. His first two tunes, cut as a solo artist, meant nothing in commercial terms and it wasn't until 1964, as a founding member of a group called the Wailing Wailers, that Bob first hit the Jamaican charts.

  • Ethiopian killed in refugee camp clashes

    An Ethiopian was killed and six other migrants injured when clashes erupted on the outskirts of the migrant camp in France’s northern port city of Calais, authorities said Tuesday. A local government spokesman said migrants from Sudan, Eritrea and Ethiopia clashed with those from Afghanistan on Monday night, stabbing each other and hitting each other with sticks.

    A 37-year-old Ethiopian died after being knifed in the chest, he said. Police intervened several times in the clashes. Fights often break out in the sprawling camp, home to thousands of migrants hoping to find a way across the Channel to Britain. On May 26, 40 people were injured in a fight between Afghan and Sudanese migrants.

    The spokesman said the migrants had also constructed about 30 barricades in the road in a bid to stop and board trucks heading to Britain.
    Last week a migrant of unknown nationality was found dead on the highway near Calais, and local officials said he likely died while crossing the road or falling off a truck. He was the eighth migrant killed since January trying to make it to Britain.
    Authorities say there are about 4,500 migrants in the camp known as the “Jungle,” however charitable organizations estimate the figure is as high as 7,000.
