 SoundStage! "For a Song" Back-Issue Article
The history behind "Redemption Song," the anthem that concludes Bob Marley and The Wailers’ 1980 LP Uprising with quiet power and continues to inspire a quarter-century later, is obvious: the selling of Africans into slavery and subsequent oppression through slavery and beyond.
The song’s two calls to action -- the above-mentioned and "sing these songs of freedom" -- seem vague at first, but examination reveals something broad enough to apply to a large number of people yet specific enough for each of us apply it to ourselves.
The song is about to ask "you" to "help to sing these songs of freedom" (emphasis added) -- not those of the past, which merely expressed the longing to be free and were all the collective "I" of the past "ever had," but those of today.

 ANTI- Artist - Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros
There is no exaggeration in the way that he is now spoken of as part of a tradition of folk protest singers stretching back to the likes of Woody Guthrie, on an iconic level with the likes of John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Bob Marley.
In the meantime, “Redemption Song” and “Long Shadow” were recorded last April at Rick Rubin’s house in Los Angeles.
All these new songs are driven by words that filter an outsider’s poetical perception of life through Joe Strummer’s habitual wry humour.
