Bob Marley and The Wailers: Confrontation (1983)
Buffalo Soldier, dreadlock Rasta
There was a Buffalo Soldier
In the heart of America
Stolen from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Confrontation was released two years after Marley's death. It contains some unreleased tracks and some singles. It's somewhat strange to note that Buffalo Soldier, which is perhaps Marley's best known song, appears for the first time here. By the way, if you do not know what a buffalo soldier was, you should look it up. I'd say that this is a solid posthumous collection.
