Liberation is a critically acclaimed reggae album by Bunny Wailer, released in 1989 (see 1989 in music). Wailer was one third of The Wailers, with Peter Tosh and Bob Marley, and he was the only one that did not become an international superstar. Due partially to stage fright that kept him from touring, Wailer's fanbase remained small even as Liberation was widely praised and considered a landmark album.
