Ziggy Marley - Power To Move Ya (Music Video)

Classic Music Television presents ZIggy Marley's Power To Move Ya

In 1995, Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers did what comes natural when you are independent in spirit, perhaps the way Bob Marley instilled. The group established their own label with offices out of Tuff Gong in Jamaica and called it, Ghetto Youths United. That label inked a record deal outside of the Caribbean with Elektra Records to release their album titled Free Like We Want 2 B.

Ziggy's album from that year peaked at #3 on Billboard's Top Reggae Albums chart.

Just below is a excellent live version of the album's opening track titled Power To Move Ya, beautifully arranged with the musicians and the backing vocals so perfectly tight. It's a timeless sound. They successfully cast a spell. Turn it up!

Power to Move Ya was released as a single with multiple dance club remixes and charted #13 on the Billboard Dance Music/Club Play Singles chart. Next is one of the excellent remixes by E-Smoove that was named the Smoove Power Mix.

A interesting story to many might be the fact that Tuff Gong, the label that Bob Marley originally founded in 1968 at what now is a museum at 56 Hope Road in Kingston Jamaica, is a globally connected enterprise led by one of the Melody Makers, sister of Ziggy and daughter of Bob, Cedella Marley. Tuff Gong that has long been known to distribute for several major labels, presently being the official Caribbean distributor of Disney, Universal and Warner Music Groups and other labels. If you follow their social networks, they constantly plug and expose a wide array of music from around the world and are have never-ending cool things happening across their network of family members projects. There are multiple Marley brands of substance being advanced such as Marley Natural and House of Marley, just to name two. And, Ziggy his own healthy product line called Ziggy Marley Organics. There is an intrinsic sort of integrity and quality that goes along with all the various offerings. There is a higher purpose.

They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Kudos to Walter Trout who just survived a nasty bout of life threatening illness. He has a world tour that kicks off in June at Royal Alpert Hall. The tour is appropriately called the "I'm Back Tour".

The blues doesn't get any more real than this live performance of Walter's song titled Brother's Keeper. It was beautifully recorded in 2012 at Don Odell's Legends Studio.
