Bob Marley’s London

It is now 35 years since the legendary Bob Marley succumbed to cancer on the 11th May 1981 aged just 36.

During his life Bob spent so much time in London that it effectively became his second home. One particular location associated with the reggae star is the former ‘Keskidee Centre‘ on Islington’s Gifford Street where he came to film the video for ‘Is this Love?‘ in 1978 (click below to view).

  1. I was never a huge reggae fan, but it was great to see so many London connections with Marley’s life.
    Thanks, Rob.
    Best wishes, Pete.
