Rita Marley - Greatest hits
Rita was born in Santiago de Cuba, to Leroy Anderson and Cynthia "Beda" Jarrett, her parents moved to Kingston, Jamaica, when she was three months old.
The Soulettes released recordings including rocksteady tunes such as "Time for Everything", "Turn Turn Turn" (released in 1966, written by folk singer Pete Seeger) and "A Deh Pon Dem". "Friends and Lovers", "One More Chance" and "That Ain't Right" (featuring harmony vocals by the Wailers), as well as a duet by Rita and Bunny Wailer, "Bless You" were issued years later on the Lovers and Friends album.
After those recordings for the Studio One (record label) coached by Bob, Rita married Bob Marley around February 1966, just before her husband moved to Wilmington, Delaware for a few months to make a living working at the Dupont Hotel there. Bob was replaced by her cousin Constantine "Vision" Walker, who recorded a few songs as a member of The Wailers during this period, with Rita providing harmonies.
As Bunny was jailed in 1968 for cannabis possession, Rita joined the Wailers, replacing Bunny for a few months. It is at that time that The Wailers met U.S. singer Johnny Nash, who produced a series of Wailers rocksteady recordings.
