Wonder Dream Concert
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wonder Dream Concert was a historical concert held on October 4, 1975, at the National Stadium in Kingston, Jamaica, performed by Bob Marley & The Wailers, his former bandmates Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer, as well as Stevie Wonder. Therefore the concert is also known as the Wailers Reunion Show, as it was the first time since 1973 and the last time ever the original Wailers Marley, Tosh and Wailers performed together.
The concert was a benefit concert for the Jamaican Institute for the Blind started off and head-lined by Stevie Wonder. Each artist played few of their songs; on the encore Wonder and Marley joined together for singing Marley's hit "I Shot The Sheriff" and Wonder's hit "Superstition". Another remarkable moment was the last performance of the original Wailers' first hit "Simmer Down" from 1964.
The tracks the Wailers played were (in this order): "Rastaman Chant", "Nice Time", "Simmer Down", "One Love", "Dreamland", "Fight Against Conviction", "Mark Of The Beast", "You Can't Blame The Youth", "Legalize It", "So Jah Seh", "No Woman No Cry", "Jah Live". Then, the before mentioned I Shot The Sheriff and Superstition. Stevie Wonder sang with his band: "Golden Lady-Too High", "You And I", "Too Shy To Say-As", "All In Love Is Fair", "Don't You Worry About A Thing", "Drum Solo", "Boogie On Reggae Woman", "I Was Made To Love Her", "Earth Angel", "Ain't Too Proud To Beg-I Heared It Through The Grapevine-Uptight-Respect-What'd I Say", "My Cherie Amor", "Fingertips", "You Haven't Done Nothing", "Living For The City", "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life".
