Auf Tour mit Bob Marley

Up close with the icon of reggae - his former stage manager tells the story. For more than three years, Mark Miller served as stage manager for Bob Marley, the co-founder and most significant representative of reggae, until his death in 1981. To this day, he venerates this extraordinary man, who was celebrated worldwide like a prophet. Bob Marley is still regarded as a hero of the freedom struggle, an icon of the 20th century like Che Guevara. For the first time, Mark Miller, as an insider and confidant, shares how Bob Marley was in private, how he thought, and what made his almost hypnotic charisma. His religiosity, the interplay of Christian and traditionally African experiences in Africa, Asia, and Australia, where thousands of fans lined the streets to greet him. In Rome, Bob Marley gathered more followers than the Pope, with 200,000 fans.
