Toots & The Maytals: Get Up, Stand Up [1979]
from the classic Pass The Pipe
Reggae Sunsplash 2K7 continues (we seem to have heeded Davy's clarion call to add more reggae to the blogosphere. Cheers, Davy -- and happy birthday!)
This is an LP my dad had so I heard this a lot as a lad. (Cheers, Dad.)
bonus beats: the same song, vinyl-ripped from my dad's copy
Note that this is not a cover of the Marley/Tosh classic but an entirely different tune of Toots's own devising.
lead vocals: Toots Hibbert
background vocals: Jerry Mathias and Raleigh Gordon

Great song, and thanks for the whatever they're called.(Props?) Who knew you were listening that acutely?

A groovy contribution to the campaign and thanks for the good wishes Emmett.
I like the keyboards at the end.
