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.
