''Burnin''' is a Roots Reggae album by The Wailers , released in 1973 (see 1973 In Music ). The fourth album by Bob Marley , Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer (the last before Tosh and Bunny departed for solo careers and the band became known as Bob Marley & The Wailers ), ''Burnin''' opens with a signature song, the call to action "Get Up, Stand Up" and includes a more confrontational and militant tone than previous records, such as in another Marley standard turned into a #1 pop hit by Eric Clapton , "I Shot the Sheriff". The songs "Duppy Conqueror", "Small Axe" and "Put It On" are re-recordings of songs previously released.

''Burnin''' peaked at #151 and #41 on Billboard 's Pop Albums and Black Albums charts respectively.
