Life (Exuma album)

Life is the sixth studio album by Bahamian folk musician Exuma, released in 1973 through Kama Sutra Records.

Reception
A reviewer for Billboard wrote of the album: "For sheer drive and power one would be hard pressed to meet Exuma's equal." Lynn Van Matre of the Chicago Tribune called Life Exuma's "most 'commercial' album to date", while also noting, "It still manages to be different—a commodity in precious short supply these days."
