The Toronto Sun is reporting that Bob Marley’s master recordings and personal belongings were destroyed in a fire in Aburi, Ghana.
The tapes were being stored at the solar-powered studio established by Marley’s wife Rita, who has lived in Africa for the past decade.
The studio complex, Studio One, was set to officially open in June – a month after it was ravaged by a blaze.
Rita Marley insists she will rebuild the complex. She reveals the lost items include footage of her late husband performing in concert.
