“Kaya” was originally released in March 1978 and had been recorded the previous year at Island Studios, London during Marley’s two-year self-imposed exile in England. This was the follow-up to his hit album “Exodus,” which had been recorded at the same sessions and yielded the popular singles “Exodus”, “Waiting in Vain”, “Jamming”, and “One Love”.

“Kaya” reached number four on the UK album chart in 1978, making it his Marley’s most successful original studio album in the UK. The album also yielded the top ten UK single “Is This Love” which is one of Marley’s best known songs.

Disc two of this deluxe edition features a show performed at Ahoy Hallen in Rotterdam, Netherlands on July 7, 1978. This was originally intended to be released with the “Babylon By Bus” album but was shelved.
