| A
concept which is widely used now: fragments
of singing vocals, heavy drum and bass laden
riddims, and on top of that a deejay
chanting.
A concept that comes from reggae music,
where the deejays toasted over reggae dub
music, showing once more the truth of the
words spoken by Tapper Zukie in the 1970's:
"Rockers today you will love it
tommorrow".
Tommorow is today and the riddims of old
still rock until this very day, and even
tommorrow, for reggae music is timeless and
good reggaemusic will remain interesting.
From what many regard as the Golden Years
of Roots Reggae comes this spaced out
collection of Bunny Lee produced DJ tracks
from one of the masters in the genre: Huford
Brown, alias U-Brown. U Brown's voice sounds
very much like the one many regard as the
originator of this DJ style called
"toasting" U-Roy.
One of the most important years in his
carreer was 1975, when he had to replace U
Roy for King Tubby's, and also started to
work with the great Bunny Lee. This is also
the year where this four year analogy starts
of.
Train To Zion one of the hardest albums
that I've heard from the brethren. It's a
selection 7 tracks from his album "Satta
Dread".
Big up to the Blood and Fire Selector for
making this must in every collector's home.
You'll hear fragments of Johnny Clarke,
Cornell Campbell, Horace Andy and many more
legendary Roots vocalists, everything
beautifully mixed in dub style.
This music keeps on rocking throught the
centuries fe real!
