Depuis sa cr\u00e9ation dans les ann\u00e9es 1970, le reggae continue d’impressionner avec ses rythmes entra\u00eenants et ses paroles de paix. Ce qui a \u00e9volu\u00e9, c’est simplement le nom : la l\u00e9gende Bob Marley a disparu depuis longtemps, et le groupe Bob Marley and The Wailers a laiss\u00e9 place \u00e0 The Wailers. Ces derniers, en tourn\u00e9e mondiale pour c\u00e9l\u00e9brer leur 40e anniversaire avec \u00ab\u00a0The Legend\u00a0\u00bb, ont r\u00e9cemment donn\u00e9 un concert en Tunisie, dimanche dernier, au th\u00e9\u00e2tre romain de Carthage, apr\u00e8s avoir visit\u00e9 la Californie et Caracas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Le mythique groupe \u00e9tait attendu par ses fans, venus remplir toutes les trav\u00e9es du th\u00e9\u00e2tre ;\u00a0\u00e0 la lumi\u00e8re de la moyenne d\u2019\u00e2ge, des r\u00e9actions des spectateurs, des refrains chant\u00e9s et repris, le style de musique a encore de beaux jours devant lui.\u00a0\u00a0 La sc\u00e8ne a pris des couleurs et des lumi\u00e8res psych\u00e9d\u00e9liques, le groupe entre, \u00e0 pas rapides, sous les applaudissements et les cris de bienvenue. Aston Barrett Junior, le jeune h\u00e9ritier du leg reggae qui transcende les g\u00e9n\u00e9rations est n\u00e9 dans la marmite jama\u00efcaine, il est le fils d\u2019Aston,, le bassiste de Bob Marley and The Wailers ;\u00a0 chemise bleu clair, casquette viss\u00e9e sur la t\u00eate, agile, gestuel, micro en main, traverse la sc\u00e8ne sur toute sa largeur.\u00a0 C\u2019est parti, fort, de chants et de refrains, l\u2019ind\u00e9modable et embl\u00e9matique chanson In love ouvre le bal et met le feu aux poudres, le public, vraisemblablement acquis \u00e0 la cause reggae r\u00e9agit au quart de tour, t\u00e9l\u00e9phones portable allum\u00e9s, les t\u00eates dodelinent, les bras gesticulent dans tous les sens, la joie et la ferveur sont visibles. On r\u00e9p\u00e8te mot \u00e0 mot, phrase par phrase, les corps en mouvement, la t\u00eate dans les \u00e9toiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Immanquablement, le chanteur lance ses saluts d\u2019amiti\u00e9 aux Tunisiens, les cris de liesse et de r\u00e9jouissance s\u2019ensuivent, la f\u00eate est totale, l\u2019Afrique est \u00e9videmment \u00e9voqu\u00e9e, \u00e0 travers ses luttes, les combats contre le racisme etc. On voit par l\u00e0 que les causes justes sont encore et toujours sur le devant de la sc\u00e8ne. La Paix, l\u2019amour, moteur avec la philosophie (Rasta) sont le fondement et l\u2019origine de la musique reggae. En ces temps d\u2019incertitude, le monde r\u00e9clame ces valeurs, The Wailers le r\u00e9p\u00e8te \u00e0 tout bout de champ, \u00e0 Carthage leur public a chant\u00e9 la paix, \u00e0 l\u2019unisson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
D\u2019une chanson \u00e0 l\u2019autre, l\u2019\u00ab \u00e2me \u00bb du style reggae s\u2019est r\u00e9pandue, durant 90 minutes dans l\u2019air de Carthage avec ses m\u00e9lodies chaloup\u00e9es, ses paroles de paix et ses rythmes dansants. Les titres phares ( No woman no cry, I shot the sherif, get up stand up, etc.) ont \u00e9t\u00e9 repris par un public charm\u00e9, enthousiaste et\u2026d\u00e9cid\u00e9 \u00e0 \u00eatre resservi. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
