Exodus — 1977
Bob Marley and the Wailers
Recorded in London after an assassination attempt, it balances militant roots anthems with songs of love and faith, from 'Jamming' to 'One Love'. Named album of the century by some critics. The essential Marley record. Released in 1977 — a solid middle chapter.
