About this album
Babylon By Bus is a vital live statement from Bob Marley & The Wailers, capturing the band’s late-1970s peak with restless energy and political urgency. Recorded during the Kaya tour and issued in 1978, it presents the group as a finely tuned concert force, with Marley’s songs expanding into long, communal performances rather than studio-bound versions. “Exodus”, “Is This Love”, “War” and “Jamming” gain extra momentum in front of an audience, while the band’s groove and solidarity give the set real lift. Widely regarded as one of the great live reggae albums, it underlines Marley’s power as both a cultural voice and a commanding performer.
