Bob Marley's house to be declared national monument

Bob Marley's house, which is now the home of the Toff Gong International music studio in Kingston, will soon be declared a national monument in Jamaica.

I saw the house many years ago when I visited the island. I also got to visit a recording studio in Kingston. When I visited, there were army tanks on the street, and reggae was still banned on the radio. The recordings had the song on one side, and the "version" on the other, and the Jamaican "discos" were pleasant, outdoor facilities.
