The I-Threes are the most influential female singing group in the history of Jamaican music. In the early 1970s Bob Marley asked the three women to sing on his recording Jah Live and for the next ten years continued to work with Mr. Marley. They have continued to perform together since Bob’s death in 1981 while at the same time pursuing their own solo careers.
