The 1973 album Catch a Fire was released worldwide, and sold well.

His subsequent albums, including Rastaman Vibration, Exodus, Kaya, Survival and the last album released during his lifetime, Uprising, were big international sellers.

Between 1991 and 2007 Bob Marley and the Wailers sold in excess of 21 million records.

These statistics did not begin to be collected until ten years after his death.
