Bob Marley Interview from Oui Magazine, February 1976

There is a reason why Joe Jurgenson was the first person I asked to come on board as a Co-Editor at MIDNIGHT RAVER BLOG.  We were talking about whether this print interview is considered rare and he says”Rare? Fuck rare.  Rare is a pre-1900 Martin.  A magazine article, not so much.”  Still bent over that one.

Included here is a profile of Bob Marley by journalist Scott Cohen which was published in the February 1976 issue of Oui, a U.S. gentlemans magazine – “for the man of the world” is their motto.  According to the MIDNIGHT DREAD, it is the first Bob Marley interview published by a  U.S. periodical.  Give thanks…this is one you don’t see every day.  But according to Joe, not rare.
