In 1999, Time magazine voted Bob Marley’s
Exodus album the most important disc of the 20th century and with good reason—every song is a reggae gem whether it deals with the nature of interpersonal relations (“
Jamming”) or universal social truths (“Natural Mystics”).Each song, a potential hit single, (7 of the 10 songs on the original album were actually hits in Great Britain) had the power to make people young and old realize that music could do more than just entertain, it could make people think and be a positive influence on social change. This is visionary Bob Marley’s masterpiece and he and the Wailers never sounded better.
