Notes

Robert Nesta Marley was born on 6 February 1945 and died on 11 May 1981. Robert Nesta Marley is the alias already on this Echo, and the years read 1945–1981. The summary names a reggae singer and songwriter who widened the reach of Jamaican music. The public record describes him as one of the people who established reggae as a music heard far beyond the records he made, with a vocal style and a body of songs that carried that music to a wide audience. Jamaican music is named because the summary already names it. The birth and death dates are the ones in the English Wikipedia introduction checked for this package. This note does not add a village, a band roster, or a creed. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame page linked below is the institutional induction record, beside the official site and the Wikipedia article. This research sheet is the page reached by bobmarley.si.
