Donovan Joseph leading this clattering, infectious 1994 do-over of the group’s late-eighties hit, calling all bus-drivers.

Including a disinterment of his great song Burial.
‘What a big disgrace, the way you rob up the place… everything you can find, you even rob the blind. Now we know the truth… taking people’s business on your head, might as well you be dead.’

The Stepping Razor’s inspired melodica cut of Armagideon has the dreadest atmosphere of the lot.

Classic LP with the Roots Radics, mixed by Scientist at Tubbys.

Killer Osibisa do-over.
‘Trammy’ was the nickname of trombonist Ron Wilson; but this is Vin Gordon.

Soulful steppers by TL, fresh from Tubby’s Firehouse.

Delroy’s bro in two feeling excursions on his punchy Better Must Come rhythm.

Sensational French-language do-over of the 45 Faybiene had recently cut for Jack Ruby (following up her hit Prophecy), before moving in 1977 from Kingston to Montreal with Joe Cooper (who plays organ on Police & Thieves).
Zonked, sublime and rugged like Half Moon in Toronto, with a crazy whistling effect throughout, and spaced-out dub.
Bim.

Faybiene Miranda was one of a kind — a Joni Mitchell fan from Panama City who co-published with Mutubaruka. Soon after Tropical Energy broke up she toured the UK with Benjamin Zephaniah, reading her poetry. Before her death in 2013 she was living in Brooklyn, amongst Steel Pulse crew.

Dense dubs of the Pablo scorcher No Entry.
Heavy heavy heavy.

King Tubby meets the Roots Radics.

Outstanding Tubbys.
