keyboarder for the Wailers - a photo on Flickriver

            Lloyd Delpratt, one of Bob Marley’s first recording studio keyboardists, spoke at a City Hall ceremony to proclaim February 6th Bob Marley Day in Toronto.  The musician remembered the famed  late Jamaican singer as a major eagle, a man who soared above everyone, everywhere.
“ Even though he has passed, he has never gone away,” Delpratt told a hush audience. Bob reached out (from beyond the grave) to help me find away.”
“ I remember I was in Italy and Bob came to me in a dream. I didn’t know then he was sick but when he lay his head in my lap I tried to heal him,” he continued.  “ I saw him later at a concert in Europe and I could tell in his voice that he was very sick.  (At that point I understood my dream.)”
Delpratt was one of 8 people with life experiences that  tie in with the message of the late Jamaican superstar spoke at the Annual Bob Marley Day proclamation ceremony.
The hour-long noon event was held in the Members Lounge of the Toronto City Hall. 
Mr. Lloyd Wilks (l) Consul General of Jamaica, oversaw the presentations of nine awards at the Wednesday press event.  Organizer Courtney Betty (middle) watch on.
