On March 24, 2023, twelve limited-edition Bob Marley vinyl LP’s will be released. Each LP is numbered and pressed exclusively at the legendary Tuff Gong International headquarters in Kingston, Jamaica.

The collection features nine original studio albums, two original live albums, and the world’s best-selling reggae album, Legend, all with a highly-desirable Tuff Gong stamp. One of the albums included is Catch A Fire, originally recorded by The Wailers in Jamaica. It was eventually released with overdubs and a mix overseen by Island founder Chris Blackwell at the label’s London headquarters.

This special edition will feature the album in its original Jamaica-recorded version, with two extra tracks from the sessions and some tracks with longer fades. Produced entirely by Bob Marley & the Wailers and mixed by longtime Marley associate Errol Brown, this Jamaican version will be available on vinyl for the first time.

The limited-edition albums were pressed at Tuff Gong’s newly refurbished vinyl pressing plant, which re-opened in summer 2020 with an annual capacity of 250,000 units. Each album was mastered by Dave Cooley at Elysian Masters in Los Angeles.
