In 2011 Harrison « Professor » Stafford - Groundation s vocal and spiritual leader - was recording Madness, his first side project. This very personal album was the result of meetings and discussions he had during his travels in Israel and Palestine. He tells us : « The idea to record this album came from decisive discussions I had in Ramallah with an Arabic poet. He told me that he knew reggae music and mentioned Bob Marley particularly. I was surprised to hear that he didn t like reggae music because of the negative message it conveyed. I was stunned. I never heard somebody associate Marley s music to something other than positive vibrations and positive messages. The poet told me : « let me ask you something : why reggae music is so Zionist in his message ? » Wahoo, everything became clearest to me ! » So Harrison Stafford wants to prove that reggae can and should talk to everybody and that it s an universal language which cross borders and conflicts. He manages it splendidly through this new live album Throw Down Your Arms which offers versions of tracks from his first album alongside new tracks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56440291262838,"sku":"4250137233451","price":14.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_1457710_92033_jpg_b2df7aa7-6dd8-4cf1-978b-ee32c4aa7312.jpg?v=1760384593","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/4250137233451-throw-down-your-arms-bonus-cd","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
