Recorded in London after an assassination attempt sent him into exile from Jamaica, and named by Time magazine as the album of the century, Exodus is Bob Marley's masterpiece of spiritual exploration. Much more than just a making-of-the-record story, The Book of Exodus takes in the history of Jamaican music, Marley's personal journey from Trench Town ghetto to global superstardom, his political involvement, Rastafarianism, and the biblical roots of the Exodus story, culminating in his triumphant return to the stage in Jamaica at the Peace Concert of 1978. As PR for Island Records, Vivien Goldman was instrumental in introducing white audiences to the Rasta sound of Bob Marley. Here, she provides a unique first-hand account of the album Exodus, from its conception in Jamaica to the intense, sometimes raucous all-night studio sessions in London. The Book of Exodus is an unforgettable portrait of Marley from a member of his intimate circle and an acutely perceptive appreciation of his musical and spiritual legacy.
