Talk:Toots and the Maytals

I am going to remove the trivia line that puts Toots singing the line 'one love' before Bob Marley because it's not true. The original recording of 'One Love' was completed in 1964 by the Wailers (with Bob Marley) while Toots' song 'It Was Written' used the line 'one love' but was recorded in 1972. Later on, Bob Marley would re-record his song 'One Love' in 1977.

I will remove it because it's not true. I'm also removing "They are the best selling reggae group ever." because thats an obvious lie. Toots is great and one of my favorites but it is clear to any, even a mild reggae fan, that Bob Marley or UB40 hold this title (most likely ub40).

I also removed "On April 28, 2006, Toots and the Maytals performed at the Open Door Benefit Concert at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester, New York. Andrea Echeverri was the supporting act. Toots was introduced by Jimmy Fink, a DJ at 107.1 The Peak, which quickly segued into a powerful rendition of their classic "Pressure Drop." Also performed was Reggae Got Soul, Monkey Man and Louie Louie." on the grounds that it is, relatively, unimportant especially within a page-long summary of the band. It is quite obvious Toots has played many concerts and festivals (Including that star-studded tribute to Bob Marley thats released on DVD) and also quite obvious that Toots has been interviewed/and or played on the radio countless times. The summary description of a single four-song stop on Toots tour is not necessary at all.
