Tosh museum to be opened this summer
KINGSTON, Jamaica — A museum honouring the life and work of late reggae musician Peter Tosh will be opened at the Pulse Centre on Trafalgar Road in St Andrew, this summer.
“This is an important turning point in the preservation and advancement of my father’s legacy and the museum will allow my father’s message of equal rights and justice to be heard by generations, both young and old,” said Niambe McIntosh, daughter of Tosh.
The agreement was signed at the Jamaican Consulate in New York, last week.
Tosh was a founding member of The Wailers, which comprised Bunny Livingston and Bob Marley.
He was killed at his St Andrew home in September 1987. He was 42.
His albums include Legalize It, an ode for proponents seeking global legalisation of marijuana, and Equal Rights.
Tosh also co-wrote Get Up, Stand Up with Bob Marley.
