Bunny Wailer "Blackheart man" :
L'un des meilleurs albums de Bunny Wailer, le seul rescapé des Wailers puisque Bob Marley et Peter Tosh nous ont quittés depuis déjà quelques années. d'ailleurs "Blacheart man" est le premier album de Bunny wailer après la séparation avec les Wailers. Un album qui a bénéficié de tous les musiciens des Wailers, Peter Tosh y compris, seul Bob marley n'y a que très peu participé.
"Blackheart man" est sorti en 1976 sur le label de Chris Blackwell Island, ce célèbre label qui fit connaître Bob Marley s'arréta en 1987. L'album a été enregistré dans l'été 1975 au Studio d'Aquarius à Kingston.

Un pur album de roots reggae, 100% roots and Kulcha, 10 titres tel "Fighting Against Convictions" que Bunny wailer a écrit alors qu'il était en prison pour port de Ganja. Une incarcération qui dura du mois de juillet 1967 à celui de septembre 1968, c'est une nouvelle version de "Battering down sentence" que Bunny enregistra quelques années plus tôt, en 1974 sur son label Solomonic.
Ou "Rastaman", "Fig tree ", "dream land", "Reincarned souls", The oppressed song", et "Blacheart man" :qui sont de véritables joyaux de la musique reggae.
A noter : Les deux titres "Reincarnated Souls":et "The Opppressed Song" devaient être sur l'album "Burnin' "de Bob Marley and The Wailers. Ces deux titres n'ont finalement pas été retenu lors de l'enregistrement de "Burnin", Bunny les enregistra donc pour "Blackheart man". L'album "Burnin' " devait au début s'appeller "Reincarnated Souls".
ou le titre "Rastaman" :
dont voici les paroles :
"Them kill Limumba for his own-a-rights,
But them can't kill the Rasta Man at all, 'tall, 'tall.
Them can't kill the Rasta Man at all.
That's the strangest man I've seen.
That's because he's a Rasta Man
Having the mark of a Nazarine.
That's because he's a Rasta Man
He carries a prophetical message.
That's because he's a Rasta Man
Borning out of time and out of age.
That's because he's a Rasta Man
The Rasta come from Zion.
Rasta Man a Lion.
Oh what a Rasta Man
Remember Jeremiah children.
He was a Rasta Man
Or even Iziah.
He was a Rasta Man
Moses in the pit of mud.
He was a Rasta Man
Trodding from Buzrak with his garments dipped in blood.
He was a Rasta Man
Oh what a dread, dread whola one,
The Rasta Man come from Zion.
What a strange, what a dread, but a righteous man,
The Rasta Man, him come from Zion.
What a dread, dread up-full one,
The Rasta Man come from Zion.
What a dread-black, dread-lock one,
The Rasta Man come from Zion.
Lightening!
Seven years years of famine for seven years of plenty
Is like two grains of wheat for one bale of barley.
A hand-full of corn shall be on the hillside
And with that you've got to be satisfied.
It was Elijha who prayed that it did not rain.
He was a Rasta Man
He prayed and the rains came again.
He was a Rasta Man
It was Joshua who commanded the sun stand still.
He was a Rasta Man
He did that according to his Master's will.
Who was a Rasta Man
What a dread, dread whola one,
The Rasta Man come from Zion.
What a strange, what a dread, but a up-full one.
The Rasta Man come "
