Heavyweight dubs of DEB murder like Words Of The Father by Earl Cunningham, Warning by Desi Roots, Mop & Cry by Freddie McKay, Wood For My Fire by Black Uhuru, Slave Driver by Dennis Brown, Armed Robbery by Junior Delgado, Augustus Pablo doing over Swing Easy…

The dubwise companion to the recent Roots From The Record Smith compilation, featuring the B-side dub versions from the original 45s, nearly all taken from master tapes, and culminating cataclysmically in Tubby’s out-of-this-world dub of Ronnie Davis’ Power Of Love.

Including a secret-weapon version of Baltimore.

Genius dubs of Barrington Levy’s Robin Hood set.
By now aged 20, Scientist had got his break mixing the singer for Jah Life: ‘When I first met King Tubby I always been telling him that ‘I can mix, I can mix’. And he always telling me, ‘Well, kid, first of all you should be in school. You’re smoking too much weed. Several big men try to do this. You’re a kid. Nobody not gonna allow you to mix.’ I would keep on bugging him, bugging him, bugging him. But he always just had me doing TV repairs, fixing the amplifiers and stuff for him. One day when Jammy failed to come — like he always do most of the time — Tubby’s made me a bet. He said, I bet if I send you around there to work, you wouldn’t know the first thing to do. And he pretty much lost on his bet. The first record I mixed went number one.’

His first LP, from 1980. Al Campbell productions recorded with Sly & Robbie at Channel One; mixed by the hubristic teenager at King Tubby’s. Great stuff… but a non-scientific title.

Ten killer dubs of Barrington Levy, mixed at Tubby’s, mostly unreleased. (The album was shelved in late 1980.)

Ruthlessly brilliant dubs of classic Linval Thompson productions like Wayne Wade’s Poor And Humble and Johnny Osbourne’s Kiss Somebody. Courtesy of the Roots Radics at Channel One, by way of Tubby’s. De Materialize puts it perfectly.

Anthony Maher’s 1988 dub album, an Australian commingling of JA science and UK post-punk and Industrial.

Second, 1982 album by the loose collective, featuring Prince Far I, Bim Sherman and Jah Woosh, and members of the Roots Radics, Slits and Glaxo Babies. ‘Heavy dread vibes, earthquaking dub and classic deejay chatter, recorded in the flash, heat and studio experimentation of post-punk London.’
With a 24” x 12” fold-out poster insert and digital download card.

Including a killer mix of Homeward Bound, the Creation Steppers’ blazing update of The Skatalites’ Confucius; a heavy Spear and a heavier Fred Locks (with Reggae Reggae Sauce rocking the mic).
