"Rasta don't work for no C.I.A." Cupples' larger than legend Marley story hits bullseye, July 31, 2014
[5-STAR] By D. Wendt "midnightdread.com"
Dusty Cupples Jah-some book makes truth more digestible by disguising it as fiction. It juggles Jamaican mysticism, history, and music into a steaming cauldron of hidden manipulation, open vision, and certain inevitable righteousness. Stir It Up takes the amazing life of Bob Marley and incorporates it into a riveting tale of unhinged sinister forces clashing with content of the character hopes and dreams. Misguided agents of corruption infiltrate and undermine One Love instincts to this day to help insure the top tier can never lose or be held accountable. It brings back the key period of the mid to late 1970s when the world made a giant u-turn into fear and misplaced loathing as Seaga, Reagan, Thatcher etc. started blaming and gleefully harming the powerless, wildly deregulating all governors on greed, as they unleashed a lawless era of needless austerity and rampant bullying and gouging, runaway 'freedoms' that still need tempering. Cupples keeps the inspiring story lively and highly interesting as it builds to an amazing crescendo when the actual events peak in Bob's destiny driven final years and musical creations. Filled with insight, wisdom, and facts David Dusty Cupples' Stir It Up delivers a read that will leave one breathless and astounded. Yes I, this is the way it is. Babylon system is the vampire. Art leads the way every time. Mix it up operator!
