Reggae Prophets Run Through Babylon
A two-disc live album from Bob Marley & The Wailers' 1978 European tour.
This selection of performances from shows in Paris and Copenhagen captures the period when Marley's message and musicality were at their peak. Signature tracks like "Exodus," "Jamming," and "Punky Reggae Party" are performed with even more energy than on studio recordings, creating a sense of unity with the audience. The chorus by the I-Threes and a rhythm section led by the Barrett Brothers musically embody the resistance to the Babylonian system. This historic live album marked the beginning of reggae music's recognition as world music.
