I missed the film yesterday but I was wondering if you have it on DVD and if it would be possible to rent it for one night?

African roots? His father was white. Norval Marley was a European Jamaican of British descent. Royal Marine and plantation overseer... Bob died of melanoma, a white man's disease. Bob invented his own poorly informed version of "Africa", all that mumbo-jumbo about Haile Selassie I (real name Tafari Makonnen Woldemikael) being a living god, and such. Vex Babylon.
