Don't look back - Peter Tosh

Peter Tosh was born as Winston Hubert McIntosh on October 18, 1944. He became a core member of The Wailers, Bob Marley's backing band. In 1976 he launched a solo career with the debut solo album 'Legalize it'.

His big international breakthrough came in 1979, when he recorded the Temptations song 'Don't look back' together with Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger. The single only reached number 43 in the UK singles chart, but topped the Dutch Top 40 in early 1979. Tosh died in 1987 when a three man gang raided his house.
