647 Robert Marley (1945-1981) and Beverly's Allstars “Judge Not” 1962

“By 1961, Bob was working at the welding yard at South Camp Road and beginning to write tunes. Once he was bold enough to scout the action at Beverley’s, a record store owned by a young Chinese entrepreneur named Leslie Kong, who was beginning to record ska songs by Jamaican singers for local consumption. Bob asked someone behind the counter for an audition with Mr. Kong, and was impolitely advised to get lost” (Stephen Davis, Bob Marley, 1990).
