Rebel Soul is an album by The Wailers, their first album to be released outside of Jamaica. The Wailers approached producer Lee "Scratch" Perry in August of 1970 to record the entire album, and the session took place at Randy Recording Studio (since then Randy Studio 17) in Kingston, Jamaica, until November. First published in the UK by Trojan Records in December 1970, the album has been re-released several times on several different labels. Perry's production is rare and haunting, featuring only guitars, bass, drums, electronic organs, and vowels without horns or other embellishments.

Songs
The first song, "Soul Rebel", comes from Perry and Marley's first collaboration. Marley initiated the idea for the song, and Perry arranged and co-wrote the music as Marley dictated the lyrics.

Reception
Allmusic gave Soul Rebels a glowing retrospective review, calling it "a bizarre and beautiful early set of reggae that sometimes play fast and loose with existing genre conventions."
Cover
According to the book, I & amp; I: The Natural Mystics: Marley, Tosh and Wailer by Colin Grant, the band is not happy with the "soft porn" look of the album cover, clashing as it did with their sensitivity, and annoyed that they were not consulted about the look.
