Miller was an intelligent and original artist, and recognized his own potential to lead, releasing a re-cut of his own track 'Tenement Yard' with the title 'Too Much Imitator', a straight out attack on those trying to copy his style.

    I heard this song when I was only seven. I'm brazilian and I didn't know English till now. Today, this song came to my mind again. I tried to search "reggae sususu" and this video appeared. I'm really happy... <3

  • I am from Brazil, some parts of Brazil, Bahia (Salvador) and Maranhão, they hear a lot of reggae, i am from Salvador, so I am looking for the more played music on the radios here and on the streets, in my childhood !, This song takes me back to my grandmother's street, in the 90s, now I understand the lyrics and dating a black Brazilian ( like me ) rasta man!

    nostalgia de quando era criança e os bêbados ficavam na rua todo fim de semana ouvindo essas músicas e bebendo. Hoje em dia nem bêbados tem mais na rua. Tudo fica mais triste. Saudade desse tempo.
  • A I remember my father of blessed memory. This was one of his best songs way back in the 70ties

    At a Glasgow gig, Jacob jumped off stage and stopped a fight between bouncers and dancing audience members, singing "We don't want no trouble in here, leave that to the queen and the police..." What a man!
  • For a great live recording of Jacob in a field near Negril in 1978, not long before his tragic death in an automobile accident, film-maker Jim Lewis captured him at his beer-belly best. The film was originally called "Heartland Reggae," and later iterations called it "The One Love Peace Concert," with footage of Bob uniting Manley and Seaga. Find it and marvel. One Love, Roger Steffens, Reggae Historian
