About Judge Not
"Judge Not" is Bob Marley's first recorded single, recorded at Federal Studios and released on Leslie Kong's Beverley's Records in Jamaica in 1962 and on Island Records in the UK the following year. On this shuffle, pre-ska beat, Marley has a youthful voice, as he was 16 years old at the time of recording. Headley Bennett performed saxophone on this recording. Though "Judge Not" failed to achieve much success, Marley was not discouraged and continued to record music. "Judge Not" was re-released in the Songs of Freedom album in 1992 as well as other compilations. The song was written by Helen Carter and Dolores Dinning and first recorded by American country music singer Margie Bowes, also covered by Sublime, and can be found on the box set Everything Under the Sun.
