Marcia Griffiths began her career as a dancer but became one of the first ladies of reggae music. Partnering Bob Andy she scored international huge hits as Bob & Marcia. After the duo disbanded she became one of Bob Marley’s backup singers the I-Threes. The ‘Pied Piper’ album could have been more interesting because of the six Bob Andy compositions and the fact that he produced the set (seemingly with help from others). Too bad that strings are added in abundance, otherwise this album would have been a good early 70’s album. The title track is a cover of Crispian St. Peters’ 1966 hit. ‘I Don’t Care’ is a do-over of the Studio One song from Bob & Tie, ‘I Don’t Care’, ‘Tie’ being Garth Tyrone Evans, member of The Paragons. Marcia Griffiths’ solo tune See You My Love’ is a soulful tune written by Bob Andy.

In her new album, Marcia Griffiths is reviving a golden age in Jamaica’s music history. Studio One was home to many artists including Bob Marley and the Wailers, Burning Spear, Lee Scratch Perry, the Skatalites and Griffiths herself. Studio One, that is where all the greats, legends, everyone came out of. It was music with substance and longevity and I figured these songs are so timeless and beautiful I would love to do my version of these songs, she told Loop in an interview via phone. There are songs I discovered that I loved when I was a girl but.
