I have no idea where I heard this but could have sworn that I had heard this soung was foudn on some old reels and only discovered after Marley's death.

Does anyone have any idea on this one?

Indeed, my memory is that the engineer was spooling through a master tape for reasons unknown but left the studio and got delayed returning. When he came back the reel was far further advanced than would be normal, and this track started playing - found by accident many, many minutes after the rest of the tracks on the reel, and almost at the end of it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.89.224.69 (talk) 14:08, 4 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Release date edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Greetings!

I've tagged the parts concerning the release date of the single at the article. As per Kazo (2009), we've already got the best guess for the record date — that is April 1973 or 1974 — but there's a lot of contradictory information out there when it comes to the first release. Also the lack of Wikipedia:Reliable sources is a serious problem, but let's ignore that for a moment.

So, we have (unreliable) sources suggesting various dates, such as:

May 1992[1]
May 19th, 1992[2]
August 1992[3]
September 1992[4]
September 7th, 1992[5][6]
October 6th, 1992[7]

Now, sources 1 and 5 link the single's release to the Songs of Freedom box set. If that's true, it'd also be our main interest. Again, hard to find a reliable source or some sort of catalogue that'd give the exact release date for the box set, but by a quick search by Google,[8][9][10] we can find a few source suggesting October 6th, 1992, thus colliding with the source number 7.

This is all just speculation, though, and hence most-likely WP:OR, but that's just a brief intro into my reasoning and the rationale for tagging the material regarding the release date. Hopefully some of you could help with providing reliable sources!

I have removed the 'citations needed' as the picture here (https://www.discogs.com/release/3340484-Bob-Marley-Iron-Lion-Zion/image/SW1hZ2U6NTA5NzkxOTg=) shows a photo of the actual record label with the actual date of 1992 on it. I feel this is a reliable source. Andrew ranfurly (talk) 21:04, 28 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
