As the title suggests, this album wasn't recorded in Jamaica;
after Marley took a bullet in a 1976 assassination attempt, he relocated
the Wailers to London. But tracks such as "Jammin' " are still
suffused with the deep essence of reggae and life at home. "Three Little
Birds," for example, had been written on the back step of Marley's
home in Kingston, where he would sit and smoke herb. Each time Marley rolled
a spliff, he would discard the seeds -- the birds of the song's title would
pick them up. "The music have a purpose," Marley said, and his
spiritual intent was never clearer than on the anthem "One Love."
