"Exodus" is a roots reggae album released by Bob Marley & the Wailers on June 3, 1977 (see 1977 in music). Much of "Exodus" was recorded in London, while Marley recuperated from an assassination attempt. It is widely considered to be one of Marley's best albums.

"Jamming," "Waiting in Vain" and "One Love/People Get Ready" were all huge international hits. "Exodus" peaked at #20 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart, and #15 on the Black Albums chart as well as remaining in the UK charts for 56 consecutive weeks.

"Exodus" has been recognized by music critics and scholars as one of the greatest albums of all time. In 1998, "TIME" magazine named "Exodus" the best music album of the 20th century. In 2001, the TV network VH1 named it the 26th greatest album of all time.
