Bob Marley - Babylon By Van, London, May 1973

Photograph
By Dennis Morris
About the image
This is one of the first photographs Morris took of Marley, at the very beginning of his great adventure with the band. He is sitting in the backseat of their Ford Transit tour van.

Marley played four nights at the Speakeasy Club in London between May 15 and 19, 1973 on the Catch a Fire Tour. Still in high school, photographer Dennis Morris skipped class one day to go down to the club and see if Marley would let him take his picture. He did and then invited young Dennis to join the band on the last two weeks of their UK tour. 

"He's just turning towards the seat I'm sitting in. He just turned around and said, 'You ready, Dennis?' I got in there and the adventure began." -- Dennis Morris
