Marley's consistent (somely by reggae standards) album career has
proffered many great songbooks, of which EXODUS is just one good
example. The singles "One Love" and "Jamming" will be familiar to
anyone with even a passing acquaintance with Jamaican music, but
just as vital are the touchingly vulnerable love song "Waiting In
Vain," the title track, and the splendid "Guiltiness." This was the
first album to feature Junior Murvin on guitar, while the expressive
use of horns adds new texture to the established quality of the
Wailers' backing. Like most of his work, vital for a comprehensive
collection.
