Conscious Party is Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers' third album. It was released in 1988. This album became popular with the hits "Tumblin' Down" and "Tomorrow People". It won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album in 1989.
The album saw the Melody Makers, the children of Bob Marley and Rita Marley- Ziggy, Stephen, Sharon and Cedella- who had been organised into a child band by their parents a decade earlier, step into global spotlight for their own talent- at the time public focus largely drawn towards band leader, lead vocalist and the album's chief composer Ziggy Marley.
