Bob Marley & The Wailers - Marley OST (3LP)

SOUNDTRACK FROM BOB MARLEY MOVIE ‘MARLEY’ TO BE RELEASED ON APRIL 17, 2012 - FIRST-EVER FAMILY AUTHORIZED DOCUMENTARY ON THE LIFE OF BOB MARLEY IN THEATRES AND ON DEMAND IN THE U.S. APRIL 20

The Third World’s first superstar and arguably the most recognizable human being on the planet, reggae giant BOB MARLEY is celebrated this year in a film by Academy Award-winning director Kevin Macdonald. MARLEY, which received a rapturous reception at its premiere at the Berlin Film Festival on Feb 12, will open in U.S. theaters on April 20, 2012, with all VOD and digital platforms, through Wagner/Cuban Company’s Magnolia Pictures. The film features stunning live performances, intimate interviews with friends and family, and rare documentary footage – all of which tells the definitive story of the superstar who rose from the ghetto to become one of the greats of popular music before dying tragically young at the height of his fame. As an integral companion piece to this critically acclaimed documentary, the official soundtrack from MARLEY will be released through Universal Music Enterprises (UMe) on April 17, 2012, as a 2-CD collection and a special 3-LP vinyl set. Featured are classic studio recordings, a special Kindred Spirit dub mix of “Exodus” and tracks from various live performances including, for the first time on record, the 1978 One Love Peace Concert performance of “Jammin’” during which Marley joined the hands of bitter political rivals Michael Manley and Edward Seaga, a gesture which went some way towards restoring peace to a strife-torn Jamaica.
