It developed from the ska vocal group, The Teenagers, created by Marley with Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer in 1963. By late 1963, singers Junior Braithwaite, Beverley Kelso, and Cherry Smith had joined the group. By the early 1970s, Marley and Bunny Wailer had learned to play some instruments, and brothers Aston "Family Man" Barrett (bass) and Carlton Barrett (drums), had joined the band. The line-up was known variously as: The Teenagers, the Wailing Rudeboys, the Wailing Wailers, then Bob Marley and the Wailers, with three albums between 1971 and 1973 credited to The Wailers. After Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh left the band in 1974, Marley continued with new band members which included the Barrett brothers, Junior Marvin and Al Anderson on lead guitar, Tyrone Downie and Earl "Wya" Lindo on keyboards, and Alvin "Seeco" Patterson on percussion. The "I Threes", consisting of Judy Mowatt, Marcia Griffiths, and Marley's wife, Rita, provided backing vocals.
