After spending 12 years as a member of Bob Marley's Wailers, Peter Tosh was eager to break free from the shadow of the legendary frontman. In 1976, he released LEGALIZE IT, still one of the most significant albums in the history of reggae. The title track expresses one of Tosh's many political causes, justifying the legalization of marijuana as a remedy for various medical ailments. "Burial" is one of several tracks that features the talents of the Wailers' stand-out lead guitarist, Al Anderson. Tosh adds his own seasoning to the reggae pot as he incorporates keyboards in "Whatcha Gonna Do" and synthesizers and sound effects on "Igziabeher." "Ketchy Shuby," a sing-along about fooling around, features the background vocal talents of Rita Marley, Bunny Wailer, and Judy Mowatt. Tosh's life ended too early, and LEGALIZE IT is the strongest testament to his legacy. Take a listen, and share the spirit of his genius.

Legalize It Lyrics:

Legalize it, don't criticize it
Legalize it, yeah, yeah, and i will advertise it

Some call it tampee, tampee
Some call it the weed
Some call it marijuana, marijuana
Some of them call it ganja, ganja

Every man got to legalize it, and don't criticize it
Legalize it, yeah, yeah, and i will advertise it

Singer smoke it
And players of instrument too
Legalize it, yeah, yeah
That's the best thing you can do

Doctors smoke it, nurses smoke it
Judges smoke it, even the lawyers too

So you've got to legalize it, and don't criticize it
Legalize it, yeah, yeah, and i will advertise it

It's good for the flu, a good for asthma
Good for tuberculosis, even umara composis

Got to legalize it, don't criticize it
Legalize it, yeah, yeah, and i will advertise it

Bird eat it, ants love it
Fowls eat it, goats love to play with it

So you've got to legalize it, don't criticize it
Legalize it, yeah, yeah, and i will advertise it

Keep on telling you, legalize it.
