Bob Marley
Marley may have seen medical doctors as samfai (tricksters, deceivers). True to this belief
Marley went against all surgical possibilities and sought out other means that would not break
his religious beliefs. He also refused to register a will, based on the Rastafari belief that
writing a will is acknowledging death as inevitable, thus disregarding the everlasting (or
everliving, as Rastas say) character of life.
Collapse and treatment
The cancer then metastasized to Marley's brain, lungs, liver, and stomach. After playing two
shows at Madison Square Garden as part of his fall 1980 Uprising Tour, he collapsed while
jogging in NYC's Central Park. The remainder of the tour was subsequently cancelled.
Bob Marley played his final concert at the Stanley Theater in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on
September 23, 1980. The live version of "Redemption Song" on Songs of Freedom was
recorded at this show
