  • Here's the second part of my 2007 interview with Bob Marley & the Wailers' bassist Aston "Family Man" Barrett, who passed away in February 2024 at age 77. "Fams" was a creative musical force, helping create the sound of reggae with his brother, drummer Carlton Barrett. #reggae #bass #bobmarley

    This guy is the heart of the wailers. Many non musicians wont understand how. But believe me, without his talent, there would be no bob marley and the wailers.

      His brother Carlton Barrett died in 1987 so it was not possible for you to meet him in 1994 😂

      The greatest bass guitarists at that time. He has created with heavy talented I ever seen in reggae music industry. All we should know that at the group of the wailers all musicians are very talented, that's why Bob chose careful musicians whose came and replace the golden chances of Burnny and Tosh after separated from the group!! Viva forever Bob Marley

    Bob Marley was a tremendous song writer and performer, but Family Man was the musical genius behind the success of The Wailers.

    I shook Aston's hand @ a Wailer's show back in August of '07 in Richmond...the band I roadied for opened for them.
    I said..."Aston...thank you, you are one of my main influences on bass"
    He said..."Seen brother"...with a smile and followed Al Anderson off the stage....

    Aston Barett un grand bassiste. Il ne vit plus. Triste. Il a été un grand musicien et compagnon de "Bob Marley and the wailers". Il est décédé il y a un peu plus de 4 mois.

    ITS TRU FAMILYMAN CAN PULL STRINGS BUT HE WAS NEVER A MEMBER OF THE WAILER I REPEAT THERE'S NO HISTORY OF THE BARRETT BROTHERS WAS A MEMBER OF THE WAILER THEY WERE BACK UP PLAYERS OF THE BAND... NOT MEMBERS OF THE WAILER
