But my favorites remain King Tubby, Lee Perry, Augustus Pablo and the early Adrian Sherwood/Singers and Players/On-U era. The best dub in my opinion always starts with live studio playing. There's a lot of good all-electronic dub, but it's not really the same. A special nod to the best remix collection I've ever heard, Guerilla in Dub, which really captures the essence of the original dub sensibility using quite good house tracks as the foundation. fh ----------------- >On 3/29/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Matisyahu (Hasidic Jewish reggae!) > >that dood is garbage. complete trash. a mockery of music. > >> Fat Freddie's Drop (it should not go unmentioned) > >yeah their album and ep that i have is immediately loved by anyone who >hears it, regardless of what their usual genre of choice is like. i >tend to call them soul-reggae, but thats kind of redundant. > >> going back to the earlier stuff (ska) you just need to have some Skatalites >> in your collection >> for instrumental reggae/ska > >i have this on heartbeat that is exceptionally wonderful stuff from >the skatalites: > >http://www.discogs.com/release/564853 > >ill be breaking that one out soon as the weather is getting nicer and nicer.... > >> some good labels: >> Wackie's >> Echo Beach & Select Cuts >> Honest Jon's >> Ariwa > >dont forget blood and fire (they did the congos reissue), > >> if you REALLY want to get to the heart of reggae then definitely check out >> Ras Michael and the whole Nyahbinghi movement >> it's totally stripped down the core of the music - the rhythm - very >> spiritual music and apparently started with the free and escaped slaves in >> Jamaica > >the nyabinghi version of "satta massagana" performed by third world to >open the movie "rockers" is ridiculous. the whole soundtrack and movie >for that are pretty insane, theres some dub (lee perry "dread lion") >and lots of great roots and some of the most classic reggae jams from >the mid-late 70s. and the movie is awesome. > >there's also a nyabinghi box set by trojan that has some nice stuff on >it as well..... > >tom > -- No virus found in this incoming message.
