Bob Marley - Haile Selassie - War in Dub

WAILERS BAND featuring Bob Marley & the Wailers: War/Selassie In Dub 7:10 A previously unreleased fine full length dub remix of track 2. Although originally cut much shorter, the first half of this dub was originally released as the B-side of a 1998 Rastafari Records vinyl single (RAS O2).


On October 4, 1963, following the founding of the Organization of African Unity in Addis Ababa a few weeks earlier in the presence of almost every African head of state, His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie the First spoke at the United Nations General Assembly in New York City. In the fast changing world of the sixties, as many African nations were struggling for independence, Selassie's historic utterance carried the full weight of the OAU he had just founded in a masterful diplomatic operation, of panafricanism on the rise and, more generally, of all the oppressed people throughout the world, in the name of whom everyone felt he spoke.
