Catch a Fire ( German: "Gerate in Brand") is the first major label album by the Jamaican reggae band The Wailers; it was released in 1973. Catch a Fire meant the international breakthrough of the band, and Bob Marley in particular became world famous, especially in Africa and the Caribbean as well as occasionally in Europe and the USA . The socially critical and warlike texts surprised many listeners, but many were also drawn to Marley's and Peter Tosh's texts, which were confrontational and convey an optimistic prospect of a future free from oppression .
