Peter Tosh taught Bunny Wailer and Bob Marley to play instruments.

  Peter Tosh taught Bunny Wailer and Bob Marley how to play instruments. Bunny Wailer, Bob Marley and Peter Tosh can best be described as branches of the same tree. Bunny Wailer, Bob Marley and Peter Tosh are similar. Yet they are different, They are unique. Peter Tosh, Olufela Anikulapo Kuti (Fela) and Lucky Dube are probably created from the same energy sources.  Peter Tosh, Olufela Anikulapo Kuti (Fela) and Lucky Dube probably shared DNA matches within the last 600 years. Perhaps, they are the same spirit and same soul? Of course, Bunny Wailer and Bob Marley were much closer with each other than they were with Peter Tosh. 

Bob Marley was aware miscegenation was always preferred in plantation society over natural melanin dominant humans. Bob Marley was aware most popular entertainers are white and/or light skinned Negroes. 

Hence, it was the job of Bob Marley to fully protect and represent the interests of Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh in the face of aggression from European business interests. Bob Marley failed Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh. On several occasions, Bunny Wailer alluded to his pain, when he realized Bob chose Chris Blackwell over him. Perhaps, Peter Tosh line, “money makes friendship end”, could be an expression of his pain caused by Bob Marley not standing firm in and with the triad in the face of predation. On too many occasions, Bob Marley made several disparaging statements which illustrated his thought pattern respecting Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh, for this truth warrior to extricate him from most of the blame for the discontinuation of their musical collaboration. None of the three stated they were interested in submerging their talent and egos to remain a musical force. However, in the early 1970s, the three were not conscious enough to work out a system where they cohabitate as a group with equal expression. The history of melanin dominant humans is saturated with miscegenation choosing Europeans over our people. And, so it is with Bob Marley. It is not at all surprising.  It's a pity Bob Marley refused to stand in total love with Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh. The three should have simply continued as a group with each making solo productions as well as equal content on Wailers recordings and concert performances. Wu-Tang clan is the perfect example how the three wailers and wailers family should have co-existed. It is what it is. Historical episodes - Move on.
