Exodus

During the recording of Exodus, Marley was in exile in London, England. Just before his exile, Bob survived an assassination attempt while in Jamaica.

A shooter entered his home in Kingston, injuring Bob, his wife, Rita, and his manager, Don Taylor. Marley survived, and performed in a free Smile Jamaica concert two days later.

Marley spent two years in exile in London, putting out the albums Exodus and Kaya. Exodus went gold in the US, UK, and Canada.

Exodus stands out from other albums by Bob Marley & the Wailers for its usage of sounds and instrumentation borrowed from Rock & Roll and other modern genres and artists.
