LINTON KWESIE JOHNSON - LKJ IN DUB VOLUME
ONE |
| Let's
not forget, that there's no DUB Poet without
DUB Music. And this album is all about the
music that came with Linton Kwesie Johnson's
outstanding poetry.

MICHAEL PROPHET - REGGAE MUSIC ALLRIGHT |
| The
album contains ten outstanding tracks.
Outstanding, because of the performance as
well as production. The music is played Rub
a Dub style, and recorded in the early
1980's. Deep bass, nuff DUB effects, Michael
Prophet's voice. Everything goes so well
together that you can say this album is
recommended not only because of Michael
Prophet's superb singing, but also because
of the musical experience.

VARIOUS - TROJAN DUB RARITIES BOX |
| Some
highlights. You can find DUBs from Max
Romeo's classic "War In A
Babylon", Dillinger's "Flat Foot
Hustling", and Barrington Levy's
"Shine Eye Girl". Just three out
of fifty crucial tunes!

MAD PROFESSOR - ANTI RACIST DUB BROADCAST
(BLACK LIBERATION DUB 2) |
| From
the first to the last tone, this album
contains an impressive exposure of Mad
Professor's position as a true Master in
DUB. There is not one track that stands out
in a negative way. All killer, no filler as
they say.

PABLO GAD - HARD TIMES |
| It's
not so unusual, to find the best music in
the dusty corners of a Reggae store. Like
good roots, you have to dig deep to find
them. Hard Times by Pablo Gad is such an
album.

|
MAD PROFESSOR - DUBTRONIC |
| Get
ready for some of the most explosive
material you can get when it comes to DUB
music. Presenting once again, on of the
Masters of UK DUB. Every single track of the
album is reviewed!

|
BURNING SPEAR - LIVE IN PARIS |
| "Live
in Paris" is a crucial Burning Spear
album too. It's a double album, even. And it
could not have been otherwise either. This
is the kind of music that you need to
experience to the fullness. This is the kind
of concert that is worked out from the top
to the very last drop (hours later).

MISTY IN ROOTS - ROOTS CONTROLLER |
| Reggae
Music originated and was further developed
mainly in Jamaican Studio's. In these
Studio's, the Studio Bands played one riddim
after another into the multi track recorders
of the engineer.
