The multi-million dollar structure located in the rustic Aburi mountains in Ghana, was owned by Mrs. Rita Marley. The studio also housed several of Bob Marley’s original tapes. Artistes and producers on the African continent eagerly looked forward to utilizing the impressive facility. It was scheduled for grand opening in June 2010. Studio 1 was the only solar operated studio in West Africa. Mrs. Rita Marley looks forward to rebuilding Studio 1 and would be grateful for whatever contribution you can make towards making that goal a reality. Financial contributions should be sent through Paypal. Thanking you in anticipation.

The message of his songs was peace, looking out for the underdog, love. Simple as that. Attributed to Eppie Edwards, deputy director of the National Library of Jamaica.
