African Herbsman

Common card · No. 436739

African Herbsman is a 1973 Trojan Records repackage of Bob Marley and the Wailers' 1971 album Soul Revolution Part II produced by Lee "Scratch" Perry, which had had a limited Jamaica-only release. African Herbsman was released shortly after the band's major-label debut album Catch a Fire had been released by Island Records. The album differs from Soul Revolution Part II by adding five other tracks from the period. Four are non-album singles, including two of the group's self-productions, "Trenchtown Rock" and "Lively Up Yourself", as well as "400 Years" by Peter Tosh from the album Soul Rebels. Several of the songs would later be re-recorded by Marley; examples are "Lively Up Yourself" (on Natty Dread), "Duppy Conqueror", "Put It On" and "Small Axe" (on Burnin'), and "Sun Is Shining" (on Kaya).
