For more than 10 years, the iconic star pushed his home country's musical style to the forefront of popular culture and almost 40 years after his death, Marley is still influencing bands and singers around the world.

Still considered one of the greatest artists of all time, Marley and his band The Wailers burst onto the scene in 1963 and almost instantly became superstars in their home country of Jamaica.

Over the course of the next decade he and the group released 11 studio albums and Marley moved from Jamaica to London in 1971 and he and the Wailers really hit the international stage.
