Wail 'N Soul 'M was a rocksteady record label created in 1966 by Bob Marley and the Wailers.^[1]

History[]

In July 1967, Bunny Wailer was sentenced to 14 months in jail. The group then consisted of Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Rita Marley.

Johnny Nash met Bob Marley in January 1968.

In March 1968, Peter Tosh was arrested for protesting in the street. In October 1968, he participated in the Rodney riots.^[2]

In 1968, the group signed a contract with Cissi Music Publishing and another contract with Nash Music.

In late 1968, West Indies Pressing Plant burned to the ground. The JAD team^{[clarification needed]} then moved to Randy's Studio and installed a sound board.
