These records were pressed from master cuts using a precision technique known as half-speed mastering. The process requires both the source master and cutting lathe to run at half speed on a specially adapted Neumann VMS-80 lathe.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis rare and specialized technique transforms difficult-to-cut high-end frequencies into easier-to-cut mid-range frequencies. The result is exceptional high-frequency response and stable stereo imaging. In short, half-speed mastering produces a master of the highest quality and allows the pressing plant to create a superior record.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n- Miles Showell, Mastering Engineer, Abbey Road Studios\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nTo celebrate what would have been Bob Marley’s 75th birthday, Island Records reissued the albums Marley released with the label from 1973 through 1983, along with \u003cem\u003eLegend\u003c\/em\u003e, one of the best-selling greatest hits albums of all time.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThese fresh pressings were cut using half-speed mastering techniques, helping bring greater clarity and depth to these legendary recordings. The bass work of Aston \"Family Man\" Barrett is given room to rumble, while the interplay between Marley and backing vocalists the I-Threes remains beautifully preserved.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n- Robert Ham, Paste Magazine\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVinyl LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalf-speed mastered at Abbey Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBob Marley 75th Anniversary obi strip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTrack List\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural Mystic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSo Much Things To Say\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuiltiness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Heathen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExodus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJamming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaiting In Vain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurn Your Lights Down Low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree Little Birds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Love \/ People Get Ready\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Ingram Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53329718509875,"sku":"ISLLP08216","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0806\/0253\/0099\/files\/BobMarley_TheWailersExodusHalf-SpeedMasteredLP.png?v=1778172779","url":"https:\/\/castlemaniaentertainment.com\/products\/bob-marley-the-wailers-exodus-half-speed-mastered-lp","provider":"CastleMania Entertainment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
