Last week the biopic film about Bob Marley “One Love” debuted in theatres.  The film focuses on the era of Marley’s life while he was preparing and recording the album “Exodus”.

In celebration of the event, Island/Ume is releasing a new limited edition of the album on May 24.

Included in the package is the original album plus a 10” LP of rare bonus tracks and an essay by the Jamaican historian Herbie Miller.  The package will come in a gatefold design with the original album cover as shown in the film.

“Time Magazine” referred to the gold certified album as “the best album of the 20th century” and the BBC called it the, “album that defined the 20th century”.

In the new liner notes that accompanies the album, Herbie Miller says, “’Exodus’ is a timeless document that publicly reveals the contemplations and reflections on the life of one of the 20th century’s most revered artists and revolutionaries.  It shows Bob’s fear and vulnerability, his steadfast commitment to making humanity as equitable and ideal as imaginable and spreading his Rastafari spirituality to the four corners of the earth.”
