"You see, lie is the moat and hypocrisy the order of the day" -Peter Tosh in Midnight Dread's 1983 interview In Honor of the Life of Peter Tosh and the recent reissue series on EMI/Capitol, REASONING WITH THE BUSH DOCTOR, Midnight Dread's entire legendary 1983 reasoning session with the Mystic Man featured in the film RED X is now posted for the first time anywhere at www.midnightdread.com Here's a brief excerpt of the introduction on my website: "In August of 1983 I received a call from the now late, great publicist Charlie Comer (The Beatles, Chieftains, Bob Marley etc.) asking me if I'd like to interview Peter Tosh. Peter was staying at the Golden Gateway Inn on Van Ness Avenue near Nob Hill in San Francisco, just a couple blocks from my basement apartment . I talked to Peter, Bush Doctor & Mystic Man, around midday August 17th, 1983. He was alone in his room, strumming his guitar when we were introduced. After our first interchange he grabbed his brand new mini-cassette recorder & started to record our interview. He said he wanted to play it for the head of EMI that week since he was embroiled in a long struggle with the label. He wanted to present my direct evidence of the chronic promotional neglect he had suffered for years from the major labels that released his records. He was so glad to hear the truth that he returned my frankness in kind as he passionately spoke on the state of the world & reggae business. It was the greatest reggae interview I'd done. I was ecstatic to be able to share his insights. I took my cassette home and immediately started previewing it for use on my radio show that week. Within minutes I was horrified. There was next to nothing on my tape! You could hear his voice for a bit & then it got lower and lower & faded out completely. Now I was really mortified. I scanned through the tape & tried it on other tape decks. Nothing. Fast forward to Friday night September 11th, 1987. An insistent phone ring turns out to be Roger Steffens calling from L.A. with the awful news that Peter has just been shot in Kingston along with the amazing Jamaican radio DJ Free-I & others. Chills went through my body as I pondered yet another major loss to reggae & the implication that even reggae radio DJs were now in the crossfire. By now I was on KFOG, the major classic rock station in San Francisco, doing an hour of Midnight Dread reggae shows in prime time Tuesday nights. I had a few days to get together a proper memorial program dedicated to Peter's life & music. But what would I do? I knew that in the period immediately following an important musicians' death commercial radio wouldn't dare criticize whatever I aired. I had a brief window of opportunity to lay it all out there, more so than if Peter was still alive. Though my interview was basically non-existent, I might be able to use a line or two before the cassette went kaput. So I climbed the ladder & tried to find the tape which by now was buried under 4 more years of attic-stuffing. I spent several agonizing minutes searching for it. Finally, I located the mysterious encryption. I took the cassette to my studio and put it in the deck. SUDDENLY, IT WAS ALL THERE. THE MAGNETIC PARTICLES HAD SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY UNDERGONE SPONTANEOUS REGENERATION IN THE WAKE OF PETER'S PASSING. The hair on the back of my neck stood up." -Doug 'Midnight Dread' Wendt (10/18/02) The text of that complete interview, "Reasoning With The Bush Doctor" was posted at midnight the night of October 19th, Peter's birthday, at midnightdread.com Go deh..

The tape was put up for sale two months ago by African-American musician, Jimmy Norman, at whose home the impromptu jam took place in early 1968. Its eight songs are 24 minutes in length and includes the well-known Marley tracks One Love, True Love and I'm Hurting Inside. Margaret Barrett, head of the popular arts division at Christie's, told the Observer that the tape is in "fragile, but playable condition" and is valued between $10,000-$15,000. "That's quite reasonable considering it is a rare piece and it's by Marley," said Barrett. She added that those interested in participating in the auction can bid in person, by telephone or absentee (represented by another party). Three of the songs on the tape were co-written by Norman and his songwriting partner, Al Pyfrom. They are Falling In And Out Of Love, Stay With Me and You Think I Have No Feelings which all appeared on Marley compilation albums released by the Los Angeles-based JAD label. JAD is owned by African-American producer, Danny Sims, who started the label with soul singer Johnny Nash in the mid-1960s. Both men played a big role in Marley gaining international recognition in the latter stages of that decade when Nash, a Texan, covered several Marley songs. Marley, who was 23 years-old at the time of the session, reportedly met Norman through Sims and Nash. Norman was eight years Marley's senior and a seasoned composer on the Rhythm and Blues circuit, a scene that fascinated the young Jamaican who was then leader of the R&B-influenced Wailers group. According to a statement from Christie's, he and Marley jammed during the day at his apartment in the Bronx. In the evening, the two were joined by Pyfrom, Marley's wife, Rita and Norman's wife, Dorothy collaborated on the songs which were recorded on a cassette tape recorder. Norman made such an impression on Marley that the singer invited him to Jamaica the following week to work on songs The Wailers were recording in Kingston. Marley would go on to superstardom in the 1970s with Chris Blackwell's Island Records; he died of cancer in 1981. This is the second occasion that Christie's will be selling items associated with Marley. In December, 1997 several pieces including a drinking mug, an American Express card, a Fedora hat, a lyric sheet for the song, Ambush In The Night and a Hohner acoustic guitar were put on auction by the Rastafarian artiste's mother, Cedella Booker. At next month's auction, signatures by members of The Beatles will also be up for sale. So too clothing worn by Elvis Presley in the films, Speedway and Double Trouble.
