My favorite song ever! He's singing about the tribulations of Jesus in the desert where he spent 40 days and 40 nights alone. "Birds in their quiet nests, Foxes in their holes Man at his peaceful rest He has nowhere to lay his head Oh yes he pray, Jah Jah pray Oh yes he pray, his Majesty pray For I and you For I and you, you 40 days and 40 nights, Way out in the Wilderness Ooh he pray, Jah pray Yes he pray, Jah pray Ooh he pray, Jah pray Until he sweat up blood, blood, blood,blood He sweat up blood He sweat up blood Ooh whole man river Yes whole man river Sometimes the river get so windy, so windy Sometimes the river get so rough, so rough Sometimes the got blood some problems going down the river Have to keep on going down there Ooh the whole man river Yes the whole man river Going about the whole man river Yes the whole man river!
The River that is life. Sometimes it gets so winding, sometimes you get problems going down the river, you have to keep on going down there, the Old' man River [Life]...special song.
I hear the Bible scriptures just from listening to the lyrics of this song, God Speaks through His Servants. Long live Winston, May God continue to give u good health and divine wisdom from above
God is good to all. Hit rock bottom in 1988 @ 25 yrs old. It's 2022 now and I'm 59 now.. still sober from alcohol. Found my ways to search for Jah in nature, my art, my music and especially my wife. He is in all of them. AA said to find and understand him as your sobering days come. I did. Forever thankful whether be good or not. The more faith the less Satan will attack.
Real music...real musicians....live vocals!!! That horn is off the chain! She's playing a conch shell?! What? These ladies are NOT to be underestimated they can "BLOW". Spear on the congas! Lead, rhythm, bass, guitars all in sync!!! Lawd have mercy!! That drummer needs to be paid double!!! Percussionist is awesome too! Love this song!!!
I owned so many of his records, they would borrow them and never have them returned😂. I must have been around the same age too when I bought my first album. Spear, Culture, Sister Nancy, Mr Gregory Isaac, Yellow Man, Marley, Peter Tosh... The first.
Ahah I was 10.....I’ve been to about a dozen burning spear shows and I can easily say it’s just about the best live show ever. It transcends time for sure....Winston Rodney has his own room in the back of the bus for sure
I had pleasure of seeing Spear perform live! Best concert I’ve ever seen along with Prince. Why? Performance. Perform for like 3 hours! Energy never low
I'm very glad as a french speaking man from Senegal with a bad level of English I can't understand very well what the great Burning Spear is singing. We need sometimes translations. But anyway Spear is one of the best reggae man of all time with a very huge band!
He's singing about the tribulations of Jesus in the desert where he spent 40 days and 40 nights alone. "Birds in their quiet nests, Foxes in their holes Man at his peaceful rest He has nowhere to lay his head Oh yes he pray, Jah Jah pray Oh yes he pray, his Majesty pray For I and you For I and you, you 40 days and 40 nights, Way out in the Wilderness Ooh he pray, Jah pray Yes he pray, Jah pray Ooh he pray, Jah pray Until he sweat up blood, blood, blood,blood He sweat up blood He sweat up blood Ooh whole man river Yes whole man river Sometimes the river get so windy, so windy Sometimes the river get so rough, so rough Sometimes the got blood some problems going down the river Have to keep on going down there Ooh the whole man river Yes the whole man river Going about the whole man river Yes the whole man river!
Finest artistic art of all times. I assembled a montain of this great legend's cassettes that i used to play and intensively listen to. Just listen....
The bassline is sublime. Mix that with The Spear's inimitable voice, and you have reggae at the highest level. The drummer is also out of this world. Hw I wish I was there.
WHO IS HERE 2021? The Rt Hon. WINSTON ( Burning Spear ) RODNEY EDUCATION. Shame this Generation never experienced dem kinda VIBES deh. When MUSICANS were TEACHERS. Long live the SPEAR .RASTAFARI LIVE
Thanks for posting this. This IMHO is the best live Reggae CD ever. I was so happy when they started making this cd again. I had it on cassette and it was stolen..
doesn't matter which year, you should listen to this song every month
My favorite song ever!

This was my first favourite reggae album as a 13 year old in rural South Africa.
I was 14 in rural Zimbabwe
Yes, me too... First time I keep this song, it took me away from this word. I saw Marcus garvey and I saw my history. Jah Rasta fari.
I owned so many of his records, they would borrow them and never have them returned😂. I must have been around the same age too when I bought my first album. Spear, Culture, Sister Nancy, Mr Gregory Isaac, Yellow Man, Marley, Peter Tosh... The first.
Best jah gig by Spear.Feeds the soul with tranquility.Forward with music
Respect all the time with rasta tribute
