DESCRIPTION
Kaya, a collection of love songs and an homage to the powers of ganja, was released to coincide with Bob Marley and The
Wailers' first world tour as well as the 1978 One Love Peace concert. Kaya was lending itself a more commercial, less driven
sound than found on previous releases, to pave the way for future albums like Survival.
As Bob put it, "Kaya means herb. It's a password some of the brethren use in JA. So Kaya is really dealing with togetherness
and humanity and peace, (because) the thing of peace travel through the earth now. Yes, Rastaman Vibrations and Exodus were
'arder. This time we dealing with something softer."
For this remaster, "Smile Jamaica (version)" the b-side of the British single "Satisfy My Soul," has
been added. Kaya Cover Art
The CD has been 24 bit digitally remastered from the original analog master tapes and packaging has been upgraded to include
complete original album graphics as well as complete lyrics and photos.

DESCRIPTION
Following the assassination attempt in December 1976, Bob and Neville Garrick left Jamaica for Compass Point in the Bahamas,
then onto England.
Bob was on a creative high, as though the shooting had only strengthened his resolve; Bob was also now working closely
with Tyrone Downie who was becoming more prominent as the group arranger than Family Man had been. By the end of February
Bob was ready to lay the tracks down and the group moved to Basing Street to record. Songs had flown out of these sessions,
many of them inspired by events around the shooting. The new album was to be called Exodus, decreed Bob, even though that
was one of the only songs he hadn't yet written.
It has been nearly twenty five years since Bob Marley gave us the gift of Exodus, and album so magnificent in scope that
Time magazine named it the album of the century. "Every song is a classic, from the message of love to the anthem of
revolution," Time wrote of Exodus. "But more than that, the album is a political and cultural nexus, drawing inspiration
from the Third World and then giving voice to it the world over."

DESCRIPTION
Release Date: September 23, 1997
Dub instrumental mixes have been a staple of reggae music since the late '60s, with producers Osbourne "King Tubby"
Ruddock and Lee "Scratch" Perry paving the way with the "dub style," accentuating the low end of the bass
and drums and using studio atmospherics like reverb, flange, and delay to give the music a liquid, tranced-out quality.
BILL LASWELL: MAKING OF DREAMS OF FREEDOM Producer and Axiom label founder Bill Laswell draws from the dub style and more,
including ethnic and electronic ambient sources, to create a dreamlike setting for eleven Wailers classics including a previously
unreleased take of "So Much Trouble In The World" from the Survival sessions, and other milestones.
"Everyone understands Bob Marley as an international icon -- as a rebel, a revolutionary, a mystic," Laswell
notes, "which is important, definitely, because he is all these things, as well as a songwriter and composer. He also
had an ability to assemble great talent -- musicians like Family Man and Carly (Barrett) -- to make some really incredible
records. I wanted this to sound as if someone had dreamed it (hence the title), where the music is there kind of floating
beneath the surface of your consciousness. In the dream the songs themselves aren't quite fully formed, but the rhythms and
melodies make the statement."
This historic record represents both a nostalgic look back and a future look forward at the music of Bob Marley and the
Wailers and promises to re-establish the importance of Bob Marley in an entirely new area of modern music. "This was
part of my inspiration," says Laswell, "as well as to maintian respect for the overall feel and spirit of the music.
Bob Marley is a messenger, an example, a leader, a freedom fighter, a legend who has grown since his death into an icon to
inspire generations to come."

DESCRIPTION
Like many of Bob's records of the late 1970s, Confrontation contained songs that had reached maturity in an utterly casual
creative atmosphere. The serenity of so many of the selections on Confrontation came as something of a surprise to many close
to Bob.
The quiet passion so apparent in the studio proved even stronger on record as its deeper purpose was revealed: songs like
"I Know" owe their magnetism to the honesty of the self-doubt revealed, Bob confronting the presence of good and
evil inside his own soul.
The CD has been 24 bit digitally remastered from the original analog master tapes and packaging has been upgraded to include
complete original album graphics as well as complete lyrics and photos. As a bonus, the seven minute "Buffalo Soldier
(12" mix)" has been added to this release.
