the Music That Changed the World.

 Equal Rights brought together Peter Tosh's dedications to the revolutionary movements growing in Africa, and the mysticism and wonders of his personal growth as a prophet, poet, preacher and world-class musical trailblazer. The album included a number of songs that became human rights anthems over the next two decades: Get Up, Stand Up, Downpressor Man, African, Apartheid, and the title tune. 

 "I Can See Clearly Now" was written and first hit big for Johnny Nash in 1972, a hopeful song about overcoming hardship, inspired by his own recovery from eye surgery. Jimmy Cliff's version gained huge new fame in 1993 when it was featured in the movie Cool Runnings, introducing the reggae classic to a new generation with its uplifting message of seeing past troubles to a bright future, a common theme in Cliff's own powerful music.
