The Bob Marley print is based on a photo by Dennis Morris. ?I bought Bob Marley?s Rastaman Vibrations shortly after I started skateboarding in 1984, purely because the only good skateboard ramp where I lived was called ?The Rasta Ramp.? I had mostly been listening to punk rock, but I was excited to discover reggae, which even more boldly embodied many of the same elements of social protest as punk but in a way that was much more palatable to my parents. I think my parents bought me Bob Marley and the Wailers records for every Christmas or birthday until I had accumulated their entire catalog; my very conservative grandmother even bought me a Bob Marley shirt from Jamaica. I leaned more towards punk, but some punk bands, most notably Bad Brains, embraced both punk and reggae. Bob Marley?s music always cheered me up during my high-school years of personal struggle. I?m always inspired by how steadfast and positive Bob was.? (quote from Shepard?s 20th Year Supply & Demand) Signed by Shepard Fairey and Dennis Morris. 18 x 24 inches Edition of 450
