This concert is a powerful one hour showcasing the many talents of the Roots Reggae Ambassador Peter Tosh. The way he commanded the stage (check out his african garb and arab scarf on his head with mirror tint glasses) is worth the purchase alone. The band does an amazing job particularly Santa Davis on drums and Vision on percussion. Despite the dominant white audiance, Peter never succombs to performing pop records. His song selection is strictly roots and rebellious. Even the poppy "Johnny B. Goode" chronicals his life growing up on the tiny island of Jamaica.
One reviewer wrote the audiance looked bored. That is absolutely not the case. Nearly everybody is standing up throughout the entire performance cheering non stop. Some stand out performances are "Pick myself up," "Rastafari Is (check out his congo performance w/ Vision, brilliant)," and "Not going to Give it up (he reveals the dreadlocks to a roaring ovation)." Peter was a masterful musician, songwriter, performer, and political activist. His performances was his ultimate platform to reveal his most inner thoughts and beliefs to the world. Peter Tosh lived and died through his music. "Captured Live" did indeed do just that, capture his life. ~Amazon
