Join host Bill Brooks for this edition of Ear Candy as we drop the needle on one of the finest vinyl pressings ever made: Analogue Productions’ UHQR edition of the Bob Marley & The Wailers 1977 masterpiece, Exodus.Recorded in London amidst a period of political turmoil and personal exile, Exodus stands as a defining peak of reggae music, blending spiritual weight, socio-political fire, and irresistible funk-infused grooves. Pressed on Clarity Vinyl with meticulous mastering directly from the original analog master tapes, this Ultra High Quality Record offers an unbelievable, transparent window into the recording session.
Bill will kick off the hour with a brief introduction setting the stage—exploring the tense backdrop surrounding the album's creation, the sonic significance of the UHQR pressing process, and why Exodus remains a timeless global anthem. Then, we turn the floor over entirely to a full, uninterrupted spin of the record—letting our audiophile system unleash Carlton Barrett’s razor-sharp one-drop drumming, Aston "Family Man" Barrett’s deep, chest-thumping bass lines, and Marley’s impassioned vocals with stunning dynamic range.
Drop in, grab a drink, and experience a reggae landmark in pure, reference-grade hi-fi sound!
Doors open at 6:30 PM | Intro & Listen at 7:00 PM
