JBC radio loses original recordings of bob marley and others
    #7845404 - 01/07/08 08:07 PM (16 years, 25 days ago)

A massive collection of 1970s music, including original recordings by reggae greats Bob Marley and Peter Tosh, has disappeared from the archives of the former Jamaica Broadcasting Corporation.

The possible theft of thousands of vinyl records and compact discs is a blow to the island's history, said Olivia Grange, Jamaica's information minister.

Musicians and former JBC employees criticised the government for not properly maintaining the archives.

"The latest development is a national disgrace," said Gladstone Wilson, former programme manager for JBC radio.

Workers at the newly-formed Public Broadcasting Corp of Jamaica noticed the disappearances earlier this week while touring the old JBC building in Kingston.

They had planned to use the archived material for their first programmes, Ms Grange said.

The archives also contain famous videos including the 1977 visit of Fidel Castro and the 1978 One Love Peace Concert, in which Marley famously called two bitter Jamaican political rivals onstage to join hands.

these recordings dont sound like unreleased work though so im not too unhappy about it. now if it was stuff that i havent heard before then yeah i would be pissed. who wants to listen to old stuff when the digitally remastered music sounds a lot better anyway?

Yeah, I hope they weren't unreleased tracks. Although, I can't imagine that anyone would be sitting on a scrap of unreleased Marley after all this time.
