On This Day In Music History (3 June 1977)Bob Marley and The Wailers Release the album, Exodus.

On this day in music, Bob Marley and the Wailers released their masterpiece, Exodus. Breaking from the traditional sounds of Jamaican reggae, the album drew from a variety of musical influences, including blues, soul, funk, and rock. Split between political discourse with themes of peace and love, the album featured such enduring global hits as “Three Little Birds,” “Waiting in Vain,” “Jamming,” and “One Love/People Get Ready.” A Top 20 album in the US, UK, France, and Sweden, among other territories, Exodus has long ranked as one of the greatest albums of all time. TIME named it the best album of the 20th century in 1999.
