Biography

Vincent Ford (10 November 1940 – 28 December 2008), known as "Tata" or "Tartar", was a Jamaican songwriter who received a writing credit for "No Woman, No Cry", performed by Bob Marley & the Wailers, as well as three other Bob Marley songs. However, a dispute arose as to whether the compositions had actually been written by Marley himself, and credited to Ford to allow Marley to avoid contractual obligations.
