Burnett captures the haunting Misty Mornings of the Isle of Springs, and the private Jamming and cloudy studio wizardry of its musical magicians. We see intimate portraits of Burning Spear; the Bush Doctor, Peter Tosh; the irrepressible producers Jack Ruby and Lee 'Scratch' Perry; and most impressively, the Prophet Bob Marley, deep in thought and serious as a heart attack, in the process of creating and sharing his immortal Redemption Songs. -Roger Steffens, Chairman, Reggae Grammy Committee; founder, The Beat magazine; author of Reggae Scrapbook

One of the truly great photojournalists, Burnett has captured unforgettable images...[he] visited Marley at his Jamaican home and then amassed more shots of the reggae king on the Marley and Wailers Exodus European tour. Only a few of Burnett s magnificent pictures saw the light of day. Now you can experience over 200 of them. Each absorbing photograph offers new insights into the soul of this timeless musician/activist. Burnett, an exceptional artist himself, allows us to travel through Marley s eyes, right into his deepest essence. We can appreciate fully the intensity, caring, power and rebelliousness of this musical force.
