Celebrating the extraordinary 2024 biopic, One Love, on the life of a global icon Bob Marley, Island/UMe releases his timeless album, Exodus, in a new limited edition. Featuring the original album with an alternate cover, new liner notes and an essay by Jamaican music historian Herbie Miller. A bonus 10” EP contains dub versions of “Exodus,” “Jamming” and “Punky Reggae Party,” plus the rare track “Roots,” all housed in a gatefold jacket. As seen in a key scene in the One Love film, the alternate cover is the album’s original design by the late Neville Garrick, a longtime friend of Bob’s who was also his creative designer and lighting director. He initially conceived Exodus in the context of flight, depicting a green, gold and red-winged migrating bird, with Marley and the Wailers enclosed in a global sphere overseen by Haile Selassie, in an image symbolic of the parting of the Red Sea. Garrick pivoted to the now- classic cover, which will be seen on the back of this release.
