Wailers and Friends gathers 18 songs, mostly by other Studio One artists, which feature the Wailers -- Bob Marley, Bunny Livingston, and Peter Tosh -- as a backing vocal group. Delroy Wilson, Rita Marley and the Soulettes, and Jackie Opel all have several tunes present, and the Skatalites often serve as the backing band. There are a couple of cuts attributed to Bob Marley and the Wailers, as well as two duets featuring Wailers members, but most of the emphasis is on the group as a background unit.
