"Amandla Festival"
This was one of Bob's most unique shows because it was before the beginning of the Survival 1979 tour but it was after the recording of Survival. So this is really one of the first shows of the tour. Bob was asked to do this concert while in Jamaica recording the album Survival. Other artists present at the concert were comedian Dick Gregory who paid Bob respect by kissing his hands at the show. They made Bob perform during the afternoon because the promoters feared a powerful performance from Bob could spark a riot. He did give one of his most powerful performances with improvisation on many tracks from both Bob and the band. The most amazing part of this show is the encore in which Bob played 2 new songs at that time. During this long version of Zimbabwe and Wake Up & Live he gives one of his only speeches.

| Notes: | This was sourced to me a SBD, I have had my doubts, this is a tad on the low gain side, some analog generations have have stolen of the sound. Its no worse then most of the Marley I have come across.

Truly a historic moment in the career of Bob Marley. This is the first time that the full soundboard recording has been collected. | |||||

| Notes: | Improved DVD video - the previous soundbaord audio has been replaced here with a soundboard plus speed-matched audience matrix mix. Bass equalization was also done to better even out the mix. The video image was improved quite a bit overall by "repairing" lots of frames with video noise and places where there were gaps in the video/soundboard source Original DVD video specifics: videotaped by Kwame Olatunji Source: multi-camera proshot Lineage: multi-cam proshot > dvd > hd > world Video attributes: (Proshot) Video: MPEG-2 Picture Resolution: 720x480 Frame Rate: 29.970 Bit Rate: 4106 Format: NTSC Aspect Ratio: 4:3 Audio attributes: (Sbd) Audio coding mode: DVD LPCM Sampling rate: 48kHz Number of audio channels: 2.0 Original audience audio specifics: Taper: Alan Powell Lineage: Nakamichi 550/300's FOB (mC) > DAT > ZA-2 > CDR > EAC > SHN New lineage and notes: DVD video and audience audio from Dime downloads.

Audio - Dolby Digital 2/0 (L,R), 48 kHz sample rate, 448 kbps data rate. Additional notes (from the on-screen titles): On July 21, 1979 Bob Marley and The Wailers, Dick Gregory, Olatunji, Eddie Palmieri, Jabula, the art of Black Dance and Patti Labelle came to Harvard Stadium in Boston for a concert to benefit the on-going struggles in Zimbabwe, Namibia and South Africa. The concert was called AMANDLA: Festival of Unity. A benfit Concert for Relief and Humanitarian Aid to Southern Africa. 25 years later in making this video of the performance of Bob Marley and the Wailers, we celebrate the triumph of these liberation struggles of the people of Southern Africa for equality, dignity and self determination. This videotape is dedicated in memory of Bob marley singer of songs of freedom and in memory of Kwame Olatunji who was responsible for recording this historic event. This show was the first live performance of the two encore songs (Zimbabwe and Wake Up And Live). It is also notable that during these two songs Bob Marley made several spoken statements over the music which are way longer than what I've ever heard on other Bob Marley recordings. The appearance of Babatunde Olatunji on Exodus is also very notable. I should also mention that the audience audio was speeded up by varying amounts throughout (with a lot of it approximately 23 cents fast). The soundboard source was mostly more complete, with the audience source having a short gap for the tape flip. The audience source was also missing Dick Gregory's opening speech and most of the encore break. The soundboard audio and the video that it came from had quite a few short gaps in the last 10 minutes of the show, which could be seamlessly added back in from the audience source in all but one place during the last song, where approximately eight tenths of a second (25 frames) now has only the audience audio with video still frames. Though that spot will be noticeable a bit, it goes by very quickly and should not impair the watching or listening experience much at all. (A lossless Flac file set of the matrix-mixed audio is being shared separately.) AND OF COURSE MANY THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED TO CREATE AND SHARE THIS SHOW IN PREVIOUS VERSIONS! Enjoy and SHARE!
