I sit down with Ziggy Marley to chat about the biopic “Bob Marley: One Love,” number one at the box office for two weeks!
The film is the story of how reggae icon Bob Marley overcame adversity, and the journey behind his revolutionary music. It was produced by Marley’s widow Rita, daughter Cedella and son Ziggy. In this interview Ziggy Marley talks about his father as an icon, a father and a musician.
On the Saturday February 17, 2024 edition of The Richard Crouse Show, get to know Reinaldo Marcus Green, director of the Oscar winning film “King Richard.” He returns to theatres this weekend with “Bob Marley: One Love,” a story of how reggae icon Bob Marley overcame adversity, and the journey behind his revolutionary music. We talk about why Bob Marley’s influence still resonates today, when his life was cut short in 1981, when he was aged just 36.
Then we’ll hear from Bob Marley’s son Ziggy Marley who talks about his father as an icon, a father and a musician.
Rik Emmett also joins me. He left Triumph in 1988 to pursue a solo career, and released records in a variety of styles, including rock, blues, jazz, classical, bluegrass, and flamenco.
