About this album

Exodus is the album that turned Bob Marley & The Wailers into global icons while sharpening reggae’s political and spiritual force. Issued in 1977 after Marley’s move to London, it was recorded with his band at a moment of exile and tension, yet the music answers hardship with discipline, melody and conviction. Produced by Bob Marley & The Wailers and Lee “Scratch” Perry associate Chris Blackwell, it balances roots-driven songs such as Natural Mystic and The Heathen with enduring anthems including Jamming, Waiting in Vain, Three Little Birds and One Love/People Get Ready. Widely regarded as one of reggae’s defining albums, it helped bring the genre to a wider international audience.
