Fred Locks “Black Star Liner“: This 1976 album by Fred Locks is more than just a catchy roots reggae melody. It’s a powerful anthem about the Garveyite longing for repatriation, which resonated with a new generation of young Rastafarians in Jamaica and the UK when it was released in 1975. The song’s title directly references Marcus Garvey’s Black Star Line steamship company, a crucial part of his “Back-to-Africa” movement. Although the song was written in 1968, it wasn’t performed live until 1973. It was finally recorded in 1975 for producer Hugh ‘Boothie’ Boothe. The full album, also titled “Black Star Liner,” includes other tracks like “Voice Of Redemption,” “Time to Change,” and “True Rastaman.” The recent remastered edition of the album remains a reggae classic and helped bring this genre to a new international audience of curious listeners.
