Damian Marley — Przystanek Woodstock, Poland, 2012

Filmed on 2 August 2012 at Przystanek Woodstock (now the Pol’and’Rock Festival) in Poland, this Damian ‘Jr. Gong’ Marley full concert unfolds before one of the largest crowds in Europe. The youngest son of Bob Marley and a multiple Grammy winner, Damian delivers a modern, nervy and committed reggae in which dancehall and hip-hop feed the roots tradition. The setlist strings together his own tracks — ‘Make It Bun Dem’, ‘Set Up Shop’, ‘Road to Zion’, the immense ‘Welcome to Jamrock’ — and honours the family legacy with ‘Get Up, Stand Up’, ‘War / No More Trouble’ and ‘Could You Be Loved’. This live capture restores the fervour of an impressive Polish audience, driven by the bass and horns of a formidable band. For fans of reggae and dancehall, this filmed concert is a highlight: the meeting of a legendary heritage and a resolutely contemporary energy. A complete, documented live concert.
