Catch a fire', the 1973 studio album by The Wailers, is the album which launched Bob Marley's international career. Chris Blackwell, The Wailers' producer, overdubbed instruments by outsiders to make them more enjoyable to Western ears - resulting in the reggae genre being heard for the first time outside of its homeland. 'Catch a Fire' has been pressed as a half speed master by Abbey Road's world-renowned engineers, producing a record of the highest quality.

ABBEY ROADS world-renowned engineers have been cutting grooves into discs since the studios first opened their doors in 1931. This record was pressed from a master cut using a precision technique known as half-speed mastering. The procedure requires the source master and the cutting lathe to run at half speed on a specially adapted Neumann VMS-80 lathe.
This rare and specialised technique transforms difficult to cut highend frequencies into relatively easy to cut mid-range frequencies. The result is a cut with excellent high frequency response and very solid and stable stereo images. In short, half-speed mastering produces a master of the highest quality that enables the pressing plant to produce a superlative record.
