It was here too that the very popular song `No Woman No Cry' was co-written by Bob Marley and Vincent `Tart' Ford, which recalled their experiences living in the yard. Bob Marley would also recall in song `Natty Dread' his many trips from First Street to Seventh Streets. It was while living at number 6 and 8 First Street that the Wailers were formed and Bob Marley and the Wailers' first album `Catch a Fire' was recorded.

Your final stop on your reggae journey is the Studio Rehearsal Room, for an edu-taining and interactive revelation of music making's intricacies. Replete with stage, mics, and stands, instruments to include a keyboard, trap drums, control board, mirrors plus seating, your tour will explore your musical talents as you join the music crew to record your own rendition of any of Bob's popular songs.
