SMITH AT STERLING SOUND PRESSED AT QUALITY RECORD PRESSINGS USING CLARITY VINYL® If any album could be declared Bob Marley’s masterpiece, it was Exodus. Recorded during a period of exile in London in the aftermath of a gun attack on Marley’s home in Jamaica, it was a musical statement of towering authority which combined visions of Biblical drama with profound expressions of solidarity and tender personal feelings. Released on 3 June 1977, it housed a string of Marley’s biggest and best-loved hits: "Jamming", "Waiting In Vain", "Three Little Birds:, "One Love/ People Get Ready"’ and, of course, the title track. Time magazine pronounced it “the best album of the 20th century”. EXODUS IS WIDELY CONSIDERED TO BE THE ALBUM THAT PROPELLED MARLEY TO INTERNATIONAL STARDOM.

BY THE TIME BOB MARLEY DIED — IN 1981, OF CANCER — HE WAS ONE OF THE WORLD'S FIRST GLOBAL SUPERSTARS, FAMOUS AND LAUDED FROM EUROPE THROUGH AFRICA AND THE AMERICAS. SOME EVEN SAW HIM AS NOT JUST A REGGAE SINGER BUT AS A FOLK HERO, A SORT OF FREEDOM FIGHTER, AND TO THIS DAY "HIS ENDURING IMAGE FEELS GREATER THAN THE MUSIC HE MADE," WRITES PITCHFORK.IN THE 21ST CENTURY, BOB MARLEY'S A BONA FIDE BRAND. NOT THE BEST REGGAE SINGER JAMAICA EVER PRODUCED, BUT HE'S CERTAINLY THE BEST-KNOWN AND BEST-SELLING. 1977'S EXODUS — RECORDED IN LONDON EXILE AFTER A FAILED ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE — TURNED OUT TO BE MARLEY'S BIGGEST-SELLING STUDIO ALBUM. TIME MAGAZINE TAPPED IT AS THE GREATEST LP OF THE 20TH CENTURY. OTHER MARLEY DISCS HAD BIGGER HITS AND STILL OTHERS HAD BETTER ALBUM TRACKS, BUT THE BALANCE MARLEY STRIKES BETWEEN POLITICS, RELIGION, AND ROMANCE ON EXODUS — COMPARE AND CONTRAST THE URGENT TITLE TRACK AND THE LAID-BACK "JAMMING" — SHOWS A POP STAR AT THE PEAK OF HIS POWERS. NOW, ANALOGUE PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS PERFECTION — EXODUS IN UHQR FORMAT ON CLARITY VINYL. THIS ULTRA HIGH QUALITY RECORD RELEASE WILL BE LIMITED TO 3,500 COPIES, WITH GOLD FOIL INDIVIDUALLY NUMBERED JACKETS. AFTER THE SUCCESS OF 1974'S NATTY DREAD AND 1976'S RASTAMAN VIBRATION, BOB MARLEY WAS NOT ONLY THE MOST SUCCESSFUL REGGAE MUSICIAN IN THE WORLD, HE WAS ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL MEN IN JAMAICA. POWERFUL ENOUGH, IN FACT, THAT HE WAS SHOT BY GUNMEN WHO BROKE INTO HIS HOME IN DECEMBER 1976, DAYS BEFORE HE WAS TO PLAY A MASSIVE FREE CONCERT INTENDED TO EASE TENSIONS DAYS BEFORE A CONTENTIOUS ELECTION FOR JAMAICAN PRIME MINISTER. IN THE WAKE OF THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, MARLEY AND HIS BAND LEFT JAMAICA AND SETTLED IN LONDON FOR TWO YEARS, WHERE HE RECORDED 1977'S EXODUS. EXODUS REPRESENTED A SUBTLE BUT SIGNIFICANT SHIFT FOR MARLEY; WHILE HE CONTINUED TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST POLITICAL CORRUPTION AND FOR FREEDOM AND EQUALITY FOR THIRD WORLD PEOPLE, HIS SKILL AS A SONGWRITER WAS AS STRONG AS EVER, AND EXODUS BOASTED MORE THAN A FEW CLASSICS, "INCLUDING THE TITLE SONG, "THREE LITTLE BIRDS," "WAITING IN VAIN," AND "TURN YOUR LIGHTS DOWN LOW," TUNES THAT DEFINED MARLEY'S GIFT FOR SOUNDING LAID-BACK AND INCISIVE AT ONCE," WRITES ALLMUSIC.

MORE ABOUT CLARITY VINYL "AS WE SET OUT TO MAKE THE WORLD'S BEST VINYL RECORD, WE BEGAN BY ESTABLISHING A SET OF EXACTING STANDARDS TO ADDRESS ALL OF THE COMPONENTS THAT COMPRISE AN LP. WE CALL OUR RECORDS MADE UNDER THESE STRICT STANDARDS ULTRA HIGH QUALITY RECORDS (UHQR). MOST AUDIOPHILES WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THE LIST OF CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN UHQR INCLUDES RECORDING, MASTERING, PLATING, PRESSING AND QUALITY CONTROL. BUT SOME MAY STOP SHORT OF CONSIDERING THE RAW MATERIAL USED TO MAKE THE RECORD: THE VINYL ITSELF.WE DID SOME RESEARCH AND LEARNED SOME INTERESTING THINGS ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THE ICONIC BLACK VINYL RECORD. THE MOST COMPELLING REVELATION TO US WAS THE FACT THAT LP VINYL IS NOT BLACK IN ITS PURE STATE. THE OFF-WHITE COLOR OF THE RECORD YOU ARE ABOUT TO LISTEN TO IS THE COLOR OF RAW VINYL IN ITS PUREST FORM (UN-TINTED VINYL). THE BLACK COLOR YOU'RE USED TO SEEING IS A COLORANT CALLED "CARBON BLACK" THAT WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL COMPOUND FORMULATION USED IN OLD SHELLAC RECORDS. AS VINYL COMPOUND REPLACED SHELLAC-BASED COMPOUND, CARBON BLACK CONTINUED TO BE USED AS A COLORANT. WE'VE EXPECTED OUR RECORDS TO BE BLACK EVER SINCE.TO MAKE THE ULTIMATE RECORD, WE DECIDED TO ENHANCE SOUND QUALITY BY REMOVING ANYTHING WE BELIEVED COULD DETRACT FROM IT. RECORD STYLI VIBRATE (OR JITTER) ON A MICROSCOPIC LEVEL, AND ANY PARTICLES OF CARBON BLACK PIGMENT THAT HAPPEN TO BE ON THE SURFACE OF THE GROOVE COULD INTRODUCE SURFACE NOISE. BY NOT ADDING CARBON BLACK TO OUR CLARITY VINYL, WE ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF NOISE CONTAMINATION DUE TO CARBON BLACK PARTICLES. INSTEAD, YOUR STYLUS IS ALLOWED TO EFFORTLESSLY SLIDE DOWN A GLOSSY AND SILKY SMOOTH GROOVE WALL.WHEN WE PURCHASED CLASSIC RECORDS, THE BRAND NAME CLARITY VINYL® CAME WITH IT. WE'RE PROUD TO HAVE RESURRECTED, REFINED AND TRADEMARKED CLARITY VINYL, THE PERFECT CANVAS FOR OUR MASTERPIECE: VINYL IN ITS PUREST FORM."
